It is old, spacious country of red sandhills, spinifex plains and rockholes that hold water long after the rain has gone, and she spent her early life moving through it on foot, living the way Pintupi families had lived there for thousands of years. Her first journey out of the desert came in 1962, travelling with a Northern Territory Welfare Branch patrol so her young son could be treated at Papunya. She returned to Kiwirrkurra that same year, and came back again the following year with her family group during the drought migration that brought many Pintupi people east. The family later settled at Walungurru, known as Kintore.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eShe was married to Yala Yala Gibbs Tjungurrayi, a founding painter of Papunya Tula and one of the great exponents of the men's Tingari style. Through the 1980s at Kintore, Ningura worked on his canvases, laying in the dense background dotting that carried his designs. In 1995 she joined the Kintore and Haasts Bluff women's painting project, then in its second year, and it was there that her own hand emerged. She formally joined Papunya Tula Artists in 1996 as part of the group of senior Kintore and Kiwirrkurra women whose arrival reshaped the company and, with it, the direction of Western Desert painting. Her first solo exhibition came in 2000 at William Mora Galleries in Melbourne, the same year her work appeared in Papunya Tula: Genesis and Genius at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. After her husband's death in 1998 her output grew, and so did her standing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eHer work is unmistakable. She built her canvases from heavy layers of acrylic, laid on with real physical weight, and organised them around strong sweeping linear designs. Long curved bands, concentric roundels and dense rows of dotting move across the surface with a rhythm that feels almost like breathing. Her palette shifts from soft pinks and corals to hot yellows, deep reds, ochres and stark black and white, and she used colour boldly, letting the ground push up through the layers above it so the surface reads with real depth. That layering has been compared to the way women apply paint to skin in ceremony. Where her husband painted men's Tingari, Ningura painted the lives, journeys and ceremonial law of women, and she is remembered as much for her authority as a keeper of that knowledge as for the paintings themselves. She also gave works to help establish and support the Western Desert dialysis service, and one of her designs travelled across remote communities on the side of its truck.\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\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eWomen's Ceremony \u003c\/span\u003e- This is Awelye, the ceremonial life of Pintupi women. Ningura painted the gatherings of ancestral women who moved across her country in the Creation era, the ceremonies they performed at the sites they stopped at, and the objects made and used in that law, including the hair string skirts and the digging sticks carried on the journey. The long curved bands and arcs that dominate her canvases carry these forms.

In 1995 she joined the Kintore and Haasts Bluff women's painting project, then in its second year, and it was there that her own hand emerged. She formally joined Papunya Tula Artists in 1996 as part of the group of senior Kintore and Kiwirrkurra women whose arrival reshaped the company and, with it, the direction of Western Desert painting. Her first solo exhibition came in 2000 at William Mora Galleries in Melbourne, the same year her work appeared in Papunya Tula: Genesis and Genius at the Art Gallery of New South Wales.

Her palette shifts from soft pinks and corals to hot yellows, deep reds, ochres and stark black and white, and she used colour boldly, letting the ground push up through the layers above it so the surface reads with real depth. That layering has been compared to the way women apply paint to skin in ceremony. Where her husband painted men's Tingari, Ningura painted the lives, journeys and ceremonial law of women, and she is remembered as much for her authority as a keeper of that knowledge as for the paintings themselves.

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.

It is old country, a pale sweep of salt and spinifex ringed by low tali sandhills that shift colour as the sun moves across them, and it holds the rockholes and ceremonial sites that Makinti carried with her for the rest of her life. She grew up living the traditional Pintupi way, and her first sight of white people came when she watched men travelling by camel near Lupul. In the early 1940s she walked in to Haasts Bluff with her family, long before Papunya was built. She later lived at Papunya, and settled at Kintore when that community was established.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eHer painting life began late and moved quickly. She was one of the senior women who took part in the collaborative Haasts Bluff and Kintore women's painting project, a body of major canvases completed in 1994 and shown at the Tandanya National Aboriginal Cultural Institute in Adelaide. That project marked the point at which Pintupi women stepped forward as independent artists in the Western Desert movement, rather than working as helpers on paintings belonging to their husbands and brothers. In 1996 Makinti began painting for Papunya Tula Artists, alongside her cousin and painting companion Tatali Nangala, and she went on to become the most senior woman painting with the company as well as a shareholder and director of it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eWhat set her apart was her hand. Where much Western Desert painting is built up through the patient placing of dots with a fine stick, Makinti worked with a loaded brush and a gestural sweep that came straight out of the way ochre is drawn across the body for women's ceremony. Her canvases are layered, thick with paint, alive with movement. Bands of pale line arc and twist across grounds of orange and ochre, lit up with bursts of pink, mauve and yellow. The effect is less a map of country than the feel of country, the rhythm of feet and song and skirts turning in the dust.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eRecognition came steadily. Australian Art Collector magazine named her one of Australia's 50 Most Collectable Artists three years running, in 2003, 2004 and 2005, and she was a repeated finalist in the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award through that decade before taking out the top prize in 2008. By then her work was being acquired by every major public collection in the country, and Utopia Art Sydney's director had described her as the Central Desert's finest painter since Emily Kngwarreye, with no living match for her painterly freedom.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eTowards the end of her painting career Makinti's eyesight was failing, but it did not dampen her passion for painting.

Using a traditional dot technique and spare geometric forms, Thomas created paintings of quiet power: bold, structured, and deeply layered in meaning.

He belonged to the Eastern Anmatyerre language group and was the younger brother, through kinship, of the celebrated artist Emily Kame Kngwarreye.

His instinct, though, was for something looser and more gestural, and he gradually moved toward broad fields of colour he called My Country. The shift was not embraced at first, and for a period he was encouraged back toward conventional dot infill. From the early 2000s he returned with conviction to the abstract, loading his brush and laying down bold and softly blended blocks of colour to map the land and sky through their changing moods and seasons. This time the art world welcomed it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eCritics have often likened these luminous colour fields to the work of Mark Rothko, and Kudditji became affectionately known as the \"Rothko of the bush\".

His instinct, though, was for something looser and more gestural, and he gradually moved toward broad fields of colour he called My Country. The shift was not embraced at first, and for a period he was encouraged back toward conventional dot infill. From the early 2000s he returned with conviction to the abstract, loading his brush and laying down bold and softly blended blocks of colour to map the land and sky through their changing moods and seasons.

It is old country, a pale sweep of salt and spinifex ringed by low tali sandhills that shift colour as the sun moves across them, and it holds the rockholes and ceremonial sites that Makinti carried with her for the rest of her life. She grew up living the traditional Pintupi way, and her first sight of white people came when she watched men travelling by camel near Lupul. In the early 1940s she walked in to Haasts Bluff with her family, long before Papunya was built. She later lived at Papunya, and settled at Kintore when that community was established.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eHer painting life began late and moved quickly. She was one of the senior women who took part in the collaborative Haasts Bluff and Kintore women's painting project, a body of major canvases completed in 1994 and shown at the Tandanya National Aboriginal Cultural Institute in Adelaide. That project marked the point at which Pintupi women stepped forward as independent artists in the Western Desert movement, rather than working as helpers on paintings belonging to their husbands and brothers. In 1996 Makinti began painting for Papunya Tula Artists, alongside her cousin and painting companion Tatali Nangala, and she went on to become the most senior woman painting with the company as well as a shareholder and director of it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eWhat set her apart was her hand. Where much Western Desert painting is built up through the patient placing of dots with a fine stick, Makinti worked with a loaded brush and a gestural sweep that came straight out of the way ochre is drawn across the body for women's ceremony. Her canvases are layered, thick with paint, alive with movement. Bands of pale line arc and twist across grounds of orange and ochre, lit up with bursts of pink, mauve and yellow. The effect is less a map of country than the feel of country, the rhythm of feet and song and skirts turning in the dust.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eRecognition came steadily. Australian Art Collector magazine named her one of Australia's 50 Most Collectable Artists three years running, in 2003, 2004 and 2005, and she was a repeated finalist in the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award through that decade before taking out the top prize in 2008.

A self-taught painter, Colleen began working in the early 1990s under Kathleen's guidance.

Her brother was Turkey Tolson Tjupurrula, a founding figure of Papunya Tula Artists and later its chairman. She married the Haasts Bluff painter Long Tom Tjapanangka at Papunya in the 1960s, and the two of them lived at Haasts Bluff and Mount Liebig.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eShe started painting in the early 1990s, when the Ikuntji Women's Centre opened at Haasts Bluff and gave the women of the community a place to work. 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.
