Jake James Tapaltjarri was born in 1962, from Kintore located approximately 530 km west of Alice Springs and close to the border with Western Australia. Jake is the son of highly respected Papunya Tula artist George "Hairbrush"Tungurrayi.
Like his father, Jake's paintings primarily depict sacred sites associated with the Tingari Cycle.
The Tingari cycle narrates that elders during the "dreaming"known as Tingari Men or Ancestors. These elders shaped and impacted the landscape of Jake's homelands, which he has shown through his line work, forming a mesmerizing scenery of squares or long bending waves.

Jake is the son of the distinguished artist George Hairbrush Tjungurrayi and it is from his father that Jake learnt his dreaming ‘Tingari’.
Tingari dreaming is so significant to Pintupi men as it represents the creation of the land, when tribal ancestors moved through the land, forming the landscape and sacred sites.
In keeping with his father’s distinct style of painting, Jake too paints with strong, bold lines, enhanced with the use of a contrasting colour palette. Given that Jake paints with brown earthly tones and also produces works in bright primary and monochrome colours, he stands as one of the most versatile artists to collect.
