						   Whiskey Tjukangku was born in 1939.  He grew up in both Ernabella and De Rose Hill.  He never went to school.  As a little boy, he couldn't say his Aboriginal name, so one day, he got a new name:  he went on a walking trip with Eric and a camel on their way to Tyrone Downs Station; he got his name "Whiskey" from Eric whose camel had that name!  As a young boy, he worked on a cattle station then as a teenager, Whiskey worked with the cattle in other stations doing mustering and trucking them ready for travel.  He married on Granite Downs and had 5 children.  
  
Whiskey Tjunkangku was the first man to paint at Iwantja Arts in South Australia and continues to enjoy painting.  He says he remembers culture designs that no one else knows.
