Wayne Weberbauer Art for Sale at Auction

b. 1951 -

Wayne Weberbauer, born on April 2nd, 1951 in Elizabeth, New Jersey, began drawing and painting at the age of five. Local wildlife in the surrounding countryside intrigued him and as a boy he captured many animals to observe and draw.

Weberbauer's early paintings can still be seen in many of the schools he attended. Upon graduating high school, he enrolled in The Newark School of Art, where he did extensive study in illustration and painting. Allied to this, Weberbauer concentrated on mastering design, color value, and perspective. With a natural bent towards impressionism, he easily combined his realistic studies of nature to the canvas to create the paintings so many have loved and collected over the years.

Desiring a more aesthetic lifestyle, Weberbauer moved to Carmel, California, where he lived and painted for the next fifteen years. It was there he met his wife, Shelly, and after their first daughter was born the "Mother Tiger with Baby Series" was created. It was so popular, that several like pieces with other cats followed.
