Serita Ross was born in Alice Springs, NT and grew up in Yuendumu, a remote Aboriginal community located 290 kms north-west of Alice Springs. She was raised by Tess Ross and Jack Jakamarra Ross who was one of the founding artists of Warlukrulangu Artists. She attended the school in Yuendumu. She is married with one daughter, Shemaiah. Serita has been painting for Warlukurlangu Artists, an Aboriginal owned and controlled art centre located in Yuendumu since 2002. She paints the Dreaming stories which include Wardapi (Goanna), Yarla (Bush Potato) and Pamapardu (Flying Ant) passed down to her by her mother and father and their parents before them. These stories relate directly to Serita's traditional country. Apart from raising her daughter which takes a lot of her time, Serita also loves to go hunting for traditional bush tucker with her family.
Kara Napangardi Ross was born in 1984, in Alice Springs hospital, the nearest hospital to Yuendumu, a remote Aboriginal community located 290 km north-west of Alice Springs in the NT of Australia. She has lived in Yuendumu her whole life, attending the local school before studying at Yirara College in Alice Springs and then at Kormilda College in Darwin. After finishing school she returned to Yuendumu and married. She has two children a little girl Angie and a boy Terrence. Kara has been painting with Warlukurlangu Artists Aboriginal Corporation since 2002, an Aboriginal owned and governed art centre located in Yuendumu. She often visited her grandfather Jack Jakamarra Ross who is one of the founding artists for this cooperative. She would sit with him and watch him paint his dreaming stories which have been passed down to her. They include the Pamapardu (Flying Ant Dreaming) and Janganpa (Native Possum Dreaming). Apart from raising her two children and painting Kara also occasionally works at the local food store. Kara also often goes out hunting for traditional foods with her extended family members in the country around Yuendumu.
