Milpurrurro Original Bark Painting - " Karritjarr"
Milpurrurru was born in 1934 and raised in central Arnhem Land, specifically Ganalbingu land, where he learned his artistry. He came from a family of artists; he was the son of Dick Ngulmarrmar, who taught him the art of bark painting, and the sister of Dorothy Djukulul, also a highly respected bark painter. He is a part of the Gurrumba Gurrumba clan, which means "a flock of geese". The traditions, styles, and surroundings of his clan provided much inspiration when it came to his bark paintings. Milpurrurru's daughter, Gladys Getjpulu, is also an artist. He died in 1998.
Milpurruruu's work is held in the permanent collections the National Museum of Australia, The
National Gallery of Victoria, and the Art Gallery of New South Wales. This piece is called Karritjarr (Water Pythons) and measures 145cm high by 57cm wide
