Herbert was the son of Alkngantjika and Anna and grew up in the Hermannsburg area along with elder brother Henoch, also a watercolour artist. This was also the time of Albert Namatjira.
This landscape by Herbert reflects the colour and formation of Glen Helen, West of Alice Springs in Central Australia. This country truly has the blue and purple colours of the ranges in the distance, the rich colour in the sand and an amazing contrast when the plentiful flora is in bloom.
