Nyurapayia Nampitjinpa born around 1935, lives in Kintore and has developed a very free and original style in contrast to artists in Kintore who prefer the very precise dot-painting method. Her painting shows often women camped at the rockhole site of Yumarra, near Tjukula in Western Australia. The roundels show the camp sites of the women who had travelled from Punkilpirri, a large permanent water site, north-west of Docker River in the Walter James Range. They later continued their travels to the north through Tjukula and Tjalili. While at Yumarra the women performed the ceremonies associated with the area.
