Poly Ngal’s paintings often depict bright yellow seeds, feast for the emus amongst the Bush Plums that grow in her country. Her paintings are borne from traditional knowledge and Poly’s confident approach to her work, which can be seen in the way she assembles streams of seeds, piling dots upon each other to create rich thick feilds of glowing palettes of colour. In this painting Poly portrays the seed on a particular plant which the emus like to eat. It is shown at various stages: the white being when the plant is in flower and the yellow representing the seeds.
