Bess was born into a family of artists, her mother is Mary Anne Nampijinpa Michael's and her sister is Portia Napanangka Michael's, both well-known Warlukurlangu artists.
Ness began painting for Warlukurlangu Artists Aboriginal Corporation, an Aboriginal owned and governed art centre located in Yuendumu, in 2009.
Warlukurlangu Artists provides an outlet for Warlpiri artists to paint their cultural heritage and earn income from their work.
