Warmun Traditional Artists, Turkey Creek (stamped verso)
Private collection, Melbourne

This painting is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Warmun Traditional Artists which states; 'Queenie tells us of “Woman's Country” on Texas Downs Station around Winnabun Springs, where men must not go because women hold ceremonies there. Just below where the spring comes out of the hills (the black line running down the middle) to join Blackfella Creek, we see a white flat rock, this is where the clear, fresh all year round water is gathered. The tortuous Bottle Tree road leading to the area is featured at the bottom.'
