This painting is sold with accompanying Warlukurlangu Artist's documentation with descriptive notes that reads, "Lirriwinki are small skinks which are hunted by flushing them out of the spinifex with fire. They run out into the open and are then hit with small clubs. The variously coloured lines represent the fire burning (red, orange and pink). Lirriwinki tail tracks are in blue, left side and sandhills, blue right side. The circles depict special sites along the path taken by this Jukurrpa. Top to bottom: a soakage at Willyankamil: 3 soakages at Palpurparnta: a rocky hill and sandhill called Ngarldindingi and sandhill site close by at Kurrkarra-parnta."
