STORY
This painting depicts Bush Turkey Dreaming. This Dreaming was passed on to Genevieve from her father, Cowboy Loy Pwerle. It follows the peripatetic path of the Bush Turkey as it searches for seeds to eat and looks for the nearby water hole so that it can drink.
This country is known as Antwengerrp which is to the west of the Sandover River on Utopia Station in Central Australia.
