“This print is about how I connected with the elders, my Nana and Pops. Nana showed her water holes and springs. At first I wasn’t sure about it. Nana went to the first spring and drank straight from her hand, the beautiful fresh water. I wouldn’t drink it til the elders filled a plastic water bottle up. Then I tasted it, and after that all us kids had a taste from our hands. Now I’m learning a lot about the bush and the rocks and everything. When I make my prints, it helps me remember what I’m learning.”
