Doreen Lane's design shows a childhood memory of jumping in the back of a ute with her family and travelling from Papunya to Ulumbauru – a beautiful, special place with a dam for swimming. Doreen is the daughter of Maudie Jugadai and Phillip Lane and the granddaughter of Timothy (Timmy) Jugadai Tjungurrayi (1920–1988) and his second wife, Bessie. Timmy was born in 1920 in the dry Alalbi creek bed near Haasts Bluff, Northern Territory. Timmy and his wife Naputta Nangala Jugadai were the founding members of Ikuntji Artists. Timmy had been painting since the 1970s and inspired his wives and children to paint, leading on a tradition of painting story and country that continues today.
