There's no more mustering using horses. I've made this artwork to show the history of those mustering days. We would go and find the wild cattle, say in summertime, there wasn't any bores in those days, so we'd find the cattle and bring them to water. In all my art, I show a different part of that story, the mustering story from my station days.
