Biography Painter. His painting (title unknown) inspired by *Tommy McRae* (Yakaduna) drawings was included in Paul Fox's exhibition, _Sweet Damper and Gossip_ , at Monash University Gallery in 1994, although the source is less obvious in Senberg's work than in many others. Senbergs quoted a view of First Government House by the Port Jackson Painter in a commissioned work hung in Governor Phillip Tower near the original site. Even so, he is really not a 'quotation artist', tending to digest his sources beyond recognition while avoiding making any commentary on them.
