Sally Kemara Perkins is a young Eastern Arrernte artist whose paintings represent the landscape of her childhood and landscape of her travels. She derives her inspiration from the beauty and harshness of the Eastern Desert landscape. Her paintings depict the startling effect of rains on her country when stark desert landscape can be transformed into a maze of wildflowers after the winter rains.

Sally builds colour upon colour on a dark background and then veils it with a kaleidoscopic pattern of white. In this painting she uses a stick to apply the veil of white over a pink background.
