Born at Coniston Station in 1958, Brenda is the wife of Michael Ross . Her father-in-law, Teddy Briscoe Tjampitjinpa , is one of the senior men at Mt Allan. An Anmatyerre speaker, Brenda’s country is around Coniston Station and Supplejack on Napperby station. She began painting in 1986, and paints Rain Water, Water Snake, Witchetty Grub, Corkwood and Yam Dreamings from this region. Her work has been exhibited in national capitals and the UK. She has also sold her work through the Centre for Aboriginal Artists in Alice Springs. She currently resides at Pulardi (Desert Bore) outstation. Probably the most accomplished of Napperby’s 'school of Clifford Possum’ painters, she has now absorbed this and other influences in the development of her own personal style.
