About the Artist
Samantha Badrock is the beating heart of Wangaratta Art School.
Her signature medium—rich Prisma coloured pencils layered on archival paper—captures more than likeness; it reveals the quiet laughs in a parent’s smile, the mischief in a child’s eyes, the gentle pride of a beloved pet.
Every commission begins with Samantha pausing over your photo, studying the quirks and shadows that make your story unique, then translating them into delicate strokes that feel almost like breathing.
As a single mum and community advocate, Samantha founded the school to prove art can be both soulful and practical: a refuge, a celebration, a way to keep memories close.
When you book a portrait, you’re not just buying a picture—you’re inviting Sam to craft a piece of family history that will outlive trends and technology.
