In contemporary Warlpiri paintings traditional iconography is used to represent the Jukurrpa, associated sites and other elements. In many paintings of this Jukurrpa curved and straight lines represent the �ngawarra� (flood waters) running through the landscape. Motifs frequently used to depict this story include small circles representing �mulju� (water soakages) and short bars depicting �mangkurdu� (cumulus & stratocumulus clouds)
