Marita Albers is a local artist who has been exhibiting her paintings for almost twenty years, beginning in Darwin not long after she first moved to the Territory. She has worked in a range of mediums, and on numerous projects and collaborations.
Marita is primarily known for her vivid paintings, which show a complete addiction to colour. In a former life, Marita studied ancient history and theology; these studies did not lead to a related career, funnily enough, however they do sometimes influence the stories in her paintings.
