Ningie has painted some of her country South West of Balgo in the Great Sandy Desert. This country is known as Wartamura named after the large tjurrnu (soakwater) depicted. Ningie would use this tjurrnu during the hot times in the desert. Surrounding the tjurrnu and dominating the country are tali (sandhills). This is the country of Ningie’s youth and is a place she would often hunt goanna.
