Reanne Nampijinpa Brown is par of the art center Warlukurlangu Artists.

Reanne Nampijinpa Brown was born in 1989 in the Alice Springs Hospital, the closest hospital to Yuendumu. She has lived in Yuendumu all her life, attending the local school. Reanne is married and has one little boy Jacob.

She first painted for Warlukurlangu Artists in 2002, when she was thirteen. Reanne paints Ngapa Jukurrpa (Water Dreaming) and Pamapardu Jukurrpa (Flying Ant Dreaming) that she has inherited from her father and grandfather’s side. These Dreamings relate directly to her land, its features and the plants and animals that inhabit it. Her first endeavour into print making at Warlukurlangu was in 2006 where she produced her first etching. As a young artist, Reanne enjoys painting for the arts centre and has a promising career ahead.
