George (Ward) Tjungurrayi, born in 1945, is a Pintupi elder who lives and works between Kintore, Kiwirrkura and Warakuna. Like many senior artists he began painting in the mid 1970s for Papunya Tula. With distinctive linear patterning Tjungurrayi still focuses largely on Tingari stories associated with male initiation and creation stories. Other subjects include Snake, Native Cat and stories associated with Lake MacDonald. In 2004 he won the Wynne Prize at the Art Gallery of New South Wales.
