Lawrence has painted country in the northern portion of the Spinifex Lands, the place of Wati Kutjara Tjukurpa, the two Serpent Men ancestral beings. The two men, a father and his son, travelled this area from Pukara to Mituna. Many of the land formations in this region were created as a consequence of these men’s antics.
