Jennifer Weber

Category: Painter

Weber has a simple reason why she works with oil paints, versus watercolour or acrylic — the scent.
“When I began working with the oil paints again I had those scent memories which can just transport you. I find that oil paints are so sensual that it is hard not to fall in love with them.”
“Going from ‘life’ to ‘art’ and back again isn’t seamless for me. I’ve not yet developed the skills to move fluidly through my day. I do think though it is life that feeds my art so I don’t wish to become a recluse.:
Sometimes I think a painting is done and then after a week, or several months, I paint right over it. If someone loves it and snags it before I start picking it apart, then it’s done.”
