Biography
Born in the late 1940s at Haasts Bluff, where Cameron’s family settled after walking in from Pintupi country hundreds of kilometres west. The area around the Lizard Dreaming mountain which lies alongside Kintore was Cameron’s father’s country. He started painting for Papunya Tula Artists at Kintore in about 1987 under the instruction of Mick Namarari Tjapaltjarri and Benny Tjapaltjarri , but later became more involved with community affairs. Stories depicted in Cameron’s paintings related to the Tingari cycle and included a Bandicoot Dreaming story around Desert Bore and a Wallaby and Budgerigar Dreaming site north-west of Nyirrpi.
