“I am a woman from the mission, on a mission, to empower students to be the best they can be” Patricia Alberts.
I painted this portrait of Murgon State High School teacher Patricia Alberts to tell her story. She is a kind, hardworking woman who has been a part of the community forever. Aunty Trish is warm and quiet, although her laugh is loud. However, the side of her I wanted to portray in this portrait, is her strength; both in her own journey, as well as her ability to impart strength and confidence on others. I have made strong colour, lighting and compositional design choices to portray her in an immediate way, with a sense of moving forward. My aim was to capture both her strength and her warmth in equal parts.
