I’m going to tell story about my country after the bushfires, when the rain comes and brings back all the bush flowers and bush medicine back again and make it green. This [is] why I do this painting, reminds me when we go hunting after the bush fire and see just black, then it rains and brings flowers back and the trees and the blue skies, and the snappy gum trees up the hill.
