Melbourne-based artist Jennifer Webb is most known for her long-standing skyline series revolving around the inspiring water and city Skyline inspired views and her large ocean studies, in which she expresses the essence of the ocean and its behaviour.

Studies are often undertaken in watercolour and major works are commonly executed in acrylic and mixed media on canvas and linen. Her signature style for the skyline-inspired works incorporates many layers of transparent and opaque square/ rectangular strokes.

Throughout life, painting and drawing has always been a passionate pursuit, but since returning from living as an artist in South America, it has continued as a full-time pursuit in Australia for the wandering artist .She has undertaken many solo shows and participated in group shows over decades as well. Her works are featured in many corporate and private collections here and overseas.

ARTIST STATEMENT

'I approach my drawing and painting as if it was my only passion on earth (naturally I have family, friends, 2 little dogs and other interests, but expression through art has been with me my whole life).I first started painting in oils at age 11yrs. I first sold paintings at age 14. I paint about things that I love. I just find some things evocative and I want to tell a story visually. Each of my separate series span a divide of concepts and themes, even painterly approaches, as I love the unique qualities and effects of watercolours, oils, acrylics and also mixed media.I have enjoyed combining science and art in the development of specific outdoor substrates and approaches.'
