The Pintupi Nine consisted of two mothers, Nanyanu and Papalanyanu along with four brothers, Warlimpirrnga, Walala, Tamlik (Thomas) and Yari Yari and three sisters; Yardi, Yikultji and Tjakaria.

Thomas paints Tingari Stories using traditional dot style to create simplistic geometric designs which is a technique shared with other Pintupi artists such as George Ward Jungurrayi. Aboriginal artists often create paintings that consist of multiple layers of meanings. Often those meanings are not shared with outsiders (the uninitiated).

She was the daughter of the senior artist Myrtle Petyarre, one of the seven sisters known throughout the art world as the Petyarre sisters, so Gloria, Kathleen, Ada Bird, Violet, Nancy and Jean were her aunties. Her own sisters Mary, Rita and Elizabeth paint as well, and her daughters also paint and carry the Bush Plum forward. Gracie was a senior custodian for the Altyerre (Dreaming) and for the wide stretch of country it belongs to, with the responsibility for Bush Plum passed to her through her family under traditional law. She passed away in 2024, and the body of work she left behind is one of the most recognisable to come out of Utopia.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eHer early years were spent living off the land, walking country with the women and gathering bush foods, and that knowledge sits underneath everything she later put on canvas. Her art practice began in the 1970s with the Utopia Women's Batik Group, working dye and wax on silk. Those batiks were taken up early by the Robert Holmes à Court Collection, one of the most significant private collections in the country. When acrylic paint and canvas were brought to the women of Utopia in the late 1980s through the project known as A Summer Project, Gracie moved her designs across to the new medium and kept developing them for the next three decades.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eGracie worked from an aerial perspective, the view of country as it is seen from above, which is how many Utopia artists paint their land. She built her paintings from very fine dots laid down in close, patient layers, shifting the tone slightly from one layer to the next so the surface seems to lift and recede as you move in front of it. The palette is restrained and the effect is quietly three dimensional. Her subject was almost always the bush plum through its seasons, flower to green fruit to ripe fruit, the whole cycle of a plant that feeds and sustains her country.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eDREAMINGS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eBush Plum (Anwekety)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e - The conkerberry is a small hardy shrub of the desert that flowers after rain and carries dark sweet fruit the women gather and eat fresh or dry for later.

Her brother was Turkey Tolson Tjupurrula, a founding figure of Papunya Tula Artists and later its chairman.

She and Long Tom were both part of the group who built that art centre's reputation. Her first canvases sat close to the Papunya Tula painting of the day, but within a few years she had cut her imagery right back to something that was unmistakably hers. In 1999 she won the Alice Prize, and from there her work travelled to collections and exhibitions overseas. She kept painting at an outstation near Papunya in her later years, and passed away in April 2019.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eHer method was simple and she stayed with it. A small number of shapes repeated across the canvas, most often the branching tree form her mother had drawn for her in the sand. The shapes go down in flat, strong colour, and the field around them is built up in dotting so fine and so thinned that it reads as one continuous surface rather than as separate dots. Colour and scale carry the painting. Some works are two tones set hard against each other, others run the full range of desert colour, and the repeated forms set up a rhythm that shifts as you move across the front of the canvas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eDREAMINGS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eWatiya Tjuta (Many Trees) - Watiya means tree and tjuta means many.

Her own sisters Mary, Rita and Elizabeth paint as well, and her daughters also paint and carry the Bush Plum forward. Gracie was a senior custodian for the Altyerre (Dreaming) and for the wide stretch of country it belongs to, with the responsibility for Bush Plum passed to her through her family under traditional law. She passed away in 2024, and the body of work she left behind is one of the most recognisable to come out of Utopia.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eHer early years were spent living off the land, walking country with the women and gathering bush foods, and that knowledge sits underneath everything she later put on canvas. Her art practice began in the 1970s with the Utopia Women's Batik Group, working dye and wax on silk. Those batiks were taken up early by the Robert Holmes à Court Collection, one of the most significant private collections in the country. When acrylic paint and canvas were brought to the women of Utopia in the late 1980s through the project known as A Summer Project, Gracie moved her designs across to the new medium and kept developing them for the next three decades.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eGracie worked from an aerial perspective, the view of country as it is seen from above, which is how many Utopia artists paint their land. She built her paintings from very fine dots laid down in close, patient layers, shifting the tone slightly from one layer to the next so the surface seems to lift and recede as you move in front of it. The palette is restrained and the effect is quietly three dimensional.

Her Bush Medicine Leaves and Bush Yam works both follow plants gathered by the women of Utopia medicine leaves for healing, and the bush yam as a longstanding food source, its seed, leaf and flower rendered in colours that shift with the seasons. The bush yam in particular has grown harder to find since the introduction of livestock and other changes to the land, lending these paintings extra weight as a record of something increasingly scarce. Alongside these, Jeannie painted Awelye the ceremonial body paint designs of the women's ceremonies as well as her own Country, Alhalkere in the Boundary Bore region of Utopia, and the Mountain Devil Lizard (Arnkerrthe) Dreaming shared across the Petyarre sisters, each bringing her own interpretation to the same ancestral story.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body\" align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eJeannie took up batik in the early 1980s, working alongside the other Utopia women before moving into acrylic on canvas later that decade.

Her brother was Turkey Tolson Tjupurrula, a founding figure of Papunya Tula Artists and later its chairman.

She and Long Tom were both part of the group who built that art centre's reputation. Her first canvases sat close to the Papunya Tula painting of the day, but within a few years she had cut her imagery right back to something that was unmistakably hers. In 1999 she won the Alice Prize, and from there her work travelled to collections and exhibitions overseas. She kept painting at an outstation near Papunya in her later years, and passed away in April 2019.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eHer method was simple and she stayed with it.

The shapes go down in flat, strong colour, and the field around them is built up in dotting so fine and so thinned that it reads as one continuous surface rather than as separate dots. Colour and scale carry the painting.
