Ann Wegmuller was born in Gourock, Scotland in 1941, lived in Zurich, Switzerland from 1961-71 and now resides in Perthshire, Scotland. She graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art with a Bachelor of Arts in 1985. Wegmuller's paintings seem to come from a view of the world coloured by weather changes, light and dark, and their effect on mood. Although mostly based on somewhere she has seen, they are really my experience of a kind of place, rather than its actual reality. Although some of her ideas for painting can be expressed in words at the beginning, the painting takes over. Working with colour and composition, she tries to communicate her experience to others; titles as a result are often difficult. Paintings, for her, do not have meanings that can be put into words.
