- Artwork story
- Eubena has painted some of her country south west of Balgo, along the middle stretches of the Canning Stock Route, near Kunawarritji (Well 33) and a pamarr (hill) named Yilpa. This is place where Eubena would often hunt and gather food. The strong lines in the painting depict the tali (sandhills) that dominate this country.
