Beyula Napanangka paints the desert honey Grevillea (spider flower) Dreaming story called Kalinykalinypa, which she inherited from her grandfather. The flower is a bush delicacy for Aboriginal people. Kalinykalinypa grows in the sandy soils on the plains. The beautiful orange coloured flowers are picked early in the morning and placed in a billycan of water to create 'honeywater' (cordial), or sucked straight off the branch for their sweet honey dew.
