Limpi Putungka Tjapangati was born at Mereenie, a stock-bore east of Ikuntji (Haasts Bluff). He was living at Papunya when the painting movement began. He was a peer of the founding members and an original shareholder. Limpi is recognized for developing a distinct style defined by alternating bands of brown and yellow in the background dotting. Other artists such as Paddy Carroll and Turkey Tolson incorporated this style into their own work and it eventually became a stylistic convention for the older Pintupi men painting in the late 1990s.
