Betty Carrington

Betty says of this painting “All that country is my father’s country, going all the way back to Billimack Spring. He grew up in this country and used to live out in the bush. He roamed this country as a kid until he was old enough to work on the station”. “This is joolawalinji (hills) country and darwirrinji (spring, living water) country. Billimack Spring is a good water place, that’s living water. There are a lot of stone tommahawk there for the old people”.
