- Notes
- Tom Alberts was born in Hobart, Tasmania, and moved with his family to Perth in 1970 where he completed his Fine Art studies at Curtin University in 1983. In late 1990 Alberts moved to Melbourne. Alberts' paintings and drawings chronicle contemporary life – but often with a twist. Coloured by film noir, the old masters, surrealism, or human psychology in general, his still life, landscape, and figurative paintings can have a mysterious or absurd edge. A skilled portraitist, Alberts has completed numerous portrait commissions of significant public figures, including Governor-General of Australia Sir Peter Cosgrove. He won the inaugural Rick Amor Self Portrait Prize in 2013. Source: https://www.charlesnodrumgallery.com.au/
