It's a powerful story. This painting brought thunder, lightning and rain. The Wungurr (watersnakes) are ready to make the creeks flow. Clarrie was painting this as the storm approached and released its fury on Kalumburu. The three headed Wandjina's come from the rock art on the Munurru side and the Wandjina with the snakes is from the Merritt side.
