Cann's country is located northeast of the Warmun Community on what is now called Texas Downs Station. Cann's paintings involve aspects of traditional Ngarranggarni (Dreaming) stories as well as his own experiences in this country as a stockman and station hand. Cann's painting style is distinctive. He views the landscape aerially and maps out his country in soft, painterly marks. Cann's paintings are carefully observed topological maps of this region.
