Katungka watched her mother and sister, Permungka, paint for many years but she only started painting regularly after her mother passed away in 1999. n 2005, she moved to Alice Springs, where she commenced painting with Papunya Tula Artists.
‘Katungka paints her mother’s dreaming stories or tjukurrpa from her country Ulkapa, near Kintore and the tjukurrpa from her own country at Intinti, both of which are far west of Haast’s Bluff, over the West Australian border.’ https://www.canberra.edu.au/on-campus/collections/the-art-collection/napanangka-katungka-kutjarr-kunya-at-intinti
