The Wondjina or Wandjina are in the mythology of the natives of Australia ( Aborigines ) cloud and rain spirits who painted their pictures on cave walls in the dream time . These pictures show her with eyes and nose, but without a mouth. Today their spirits are still in ponds. One of the wondjina , Walaganda , became the Milky Way according to Aboriginal beliefs . Pictures that show these mythological beings are assigned to the "Wondjina style". This art style shaped by mythical ideas can be found in the northwest of the Kimberley region in Western Australia .
