Biography

Patrica began painting at Keringke in 2003. She has been able to watch Mrs Wallace, a senior Keringke Artist who is her mother in law, for several years and has learned technique and some ideas from that. Patricia uses designs that represent places which are significant for her; places which belong to her through her family and their dreamings, and places for which she has responsibility as a traditional owner.
