Artist Spotlight: Ivy Jacobsen

I have been doing research and making notes about which artists I want to visit for San Francisco's Open Studios in October and decided that each week I will share some artists I am interested in seeing. There are over 400 artists participating and I am hoping to view a broad array with different styles and studios throughout the weekends!


Ivy Jacobsen 


I love the ethereal feel of Jacobson's mixed media paintings. The lines are smooth and the silhouette against the light background reminds me of summer evenings as the sun is setting. They are calm, serene yet I find myself wanting to look further into them, as if the picture could just keep going and going. Jacbosen's paintings are also available through Hang Art Gallery, which is a great gallery and resource for Bay Area artists and collectors.
