Figurative painters | Jennifer Anderson
Jennifer was born in Glasgow. She attended Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee, from which she graduated with a first class honours degree in fine art painting at the age of 21. She has exhibited widely throughout the UK, and has also shown work internationally in New York, Zurich, and Toronto.
Anderson's subjects seem to balance their own reserve, their self-sufficient presence, against the artist's sustained scrutiny. Surfaces - a creased white shirt, scraped-back jet-black hair, or the slope of a cheek bone - are described fluently, the restrained palette emphasising subtle tonal shifts. These haunting images explore the limits of what we can learn from observation - even observation of those whom we see often and know well - something which gives Anderson's work a universal quality transcending most individual portraiture.Related links:
