Picture of Peggy Griffiths
In this image of traditional country Peggy represents an area called Jinamoom. The Keep River flows through the center of the image joined by the smaller tributaries that run during the wet season. In the upper section is a large hill called Goodim. In the lower section the hills represent "Ant Pit country". Ant Pit is good bush medicine. The two billabongs in the upper right are called Wirridlboom and Hungry, respectively.

The flecks of paint in the background are typical of Peggy's work and represent the spinifex grasses moving as the winds travel across country. This movement is evidence to Peggy that the Spirit of traditional country is still alive.

USD $6500
