My name is Jennifer Curtis and I am a magazine editor based in Blackburn, Victoria. I was born in Yorkshire, England and emigrated to Australia in my 30s.
After 40 plus years of thinking about painting again (I studied art at school), and constant nagging from family and friends, I finally decided to stop procrastinating and start painting. It has been an exhilarating experience and I have quickly become addicted to the feeling of peace and relaxation it affords.
I have chosen to use oil paints because I love the colours and textures you can achieve with them - both with a brush and a palette knife. I particularly like painting rocks (probably a hark-back to my study of Geology at university) and water. |
