- Artwork story
- In the Ngarrangkarni (Dreaming) there were two naminjis, two women. They were trying to find water, but there wasn’t very much water around. They were told to walk to a place where their was a water fall. Their uncle gave them safe directions to follow the Wonganabull River past Dommerinji Hill They were told to go this way because it was safe and because they were single women. They came upon the waterfall, you can see it as the pale blue half circle in front of the two women in the foreground.
