In this design Loretta Penahall depicts Yultukunpa, honey grevillea which is locally called bush lolly. It flowers soon after the rain in the sandhills and has a very sweet taste. The painting refers to the artist's mother's Dreaming west of Kintore.

She is married to Frankie Marshall, the brother of Ikuntji Artists Daphne Marks. Loretta's works depict the landscape around Ikuntji (Haasts Bluff) and Utju (Areyonga) as well as her grandmother's Tjukurrpa - honey grevillea.
