Weidenaar’s paintings are colorful and intriguing. The subjects are often quite ordinary – fans, or kites, or crushed soda cans – but they are presented in surprising compositions that engage and amuse the viewer. Shapes and colors are rendered realistically but the vantage point and cropping bring out abstract qualities that call for a more discerning look.
Her monoprints explore the myriad texture possibilities of found materials. Feathers, leaves, mesh, Halloween netting, onion bags, and crazy yarns are all employed to generate mysterious images in her abstract prints.
