In this painting the artist has painted designs associated with the rockhole of Kalipinpa, a major water dreaming site north of Sandy Blight Junction. In ancestral times a huge storm erupted in this area causing the lightning to flash and the water to rush across the land filling the rockholes and forming small creeks.

The painting depicts the ceremonial country of the area with various landforms such as sandhills, hills, rockholes, soakages and creeks. 

here are many dreamings associated with the site including water, lightning and bush potato. A group of ancestral men and women once gathered at the rockhole to perform the dances and sing the songs associated with the area.
