Biography
Born in the Kintore Ranges c.1935, Johnny Scobie grew up walking these regions as his father had before him. As a young man, Johnny went droving, north to Lajamanu and east as far as Broken Hill before returning to Alice Springs to marry his promised wife Narpula Scobie , sister of Turkey Tolson . and go to live in Papunya. Johnny’s recollection is that he started to paint in the late ’70s when John Kean was running Papunya Tula Artists, resuming after a break back in Kintore, where he was Chairman of the Walungurru (Kintore) Council for many years. His country from his mother’s side was around the Kintore Ranges out to Lake Mackay and the Balgo area. He also painted the Wedgetail Eagle Dreaming for a hill to the west of Yuendumu.
