Sharon – My Grandfather’s Country. – Sharon Doolan

I paint the land as I look down on it, my Grandfather’s land. I am not painting that tjukurrpa, that man’s story. I paint the land and the feelings I have when i’m on that country.

This painting depicts Sharon’s Grandfather’s country. This place is in the Witura National Park on the Northern Territory and South Australia border just south of Finke. This area is a beautiful place with plenty of water. There are many trees, lakes and swimming holes.
