Biography
Born c. 1940 at Haasts Bluff in his mother’s country. Two Bob’s family fled Warlpiri country and went to live in the area of Mt Wedge after the 1928 Coniston massacre, later moving to Haasts Bluff and thence to the new settlement at Papunya in the early ’60s. Two Bob was one of a group of younger Warlpiri artists, including also Don Tjungurrayi , Maxie Tjampitjinpa and Michael Nelson , who started painting at Papunya in the late 1970s, early 1980s and emerged over the decade of the 1980s as major painters for Papunya Tula Artists. Two Bob’s Dreaming stories included Goanna, Man, Woman, Bush Tucker, Bush Grapes, Mukaki and Carpet Snake. He and his wife Nellie Nangala, a Luritja woman (who also painted for Papunya Tula occasionally), had three sons and two daughters. Two Bob travelled to Canberra, Sydney and Adelaide with Papunya Tula Artists. Writers: Johnson, Vivien Date written: 1994 Last updated: 2011
