Biography
Born in the Haasts Bluff region in the ’50s, Narpula is the younger sister of Turkey Tolson . She grew up with her family in the Haasts Bluff area and moved to Papunya when the settlement was established in the ’60s. Married to Johnny Scobie , she started painting at Papunya in the early ’80s, one of the first women to do so, and continued after the move to Kintore. For over a decade she was the only senior Pintupi woman painting for Papunya Tula Artists in Kintore, though her young daughter-in-law, Fabrianne Peterson , also started painting alongside her in the late 1980s. She paints Bush Tucker and Women’s stories and has lived in Mt Liebig since her husband’s death. Writers: Johnson, Vivien Note: Primary biographer Date written: 1994 Last updated: 2011
