This work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Warlayirti Artists which states:

‘Eubena has painted some of her country south west of Balgo. This country is located along the middle stretches of the Canning Stock Route near Well 33. The central circles depict a number of warniri (rockholes), the upper two are named Tjareeyatu, below these are Wadamaree and Yalta. The lowest two circles are warniri named Wati Kutjarra after the two goanna men who travelled throughout the desert region during the Tjukurrpa (Dreaming). They camped here and made spears. Surrounding the wanirri and dominating this country are tali (sandhills).’
