Clifford is son of George Tilmouth and Magdalene Marshall. His grandmother is Dorothy (sister of Wendy Kunoth). Clifford is married to Rosemary Bird Mpetyane (daughter of Paddy and Eileen Bird). He commenced painting for Mbantua Gallery in 2001 and paints very traditional men's stories belonging to his country. He loves to teach his stories through his paintings.
Clifford captures a vibrant scene of modern-day Aboriginal bush life, where families load up the cars with the kids and head out to connect with Country. These journeys are more than just outings - they are opportunities for sharing stories, passing down knowledge and learning in the rich natural environment.
When recent rains have filled the waterholes, a refreshing swim can become part of the adventure, adding to the joy and connection with the land.
