Welcome to Jacobson Arts
Church in the Woods, 30x40, $2000
In mid-October, I traveled north, to the Maine coast for a brief visit and then across New Hampshire and Vermont and then south tothe Mid-Hudson Valley of New York, where I lived for a while. I grew up in New England but hadn't seen autumn there for more than a decade. It was glorious! The colors, the light, the vividness, the brilliance - in sun and rain and clouds, it didn't matter, the trees shone with what looked like an internal light. And I painted as I've never painted. I could do no wrong - and how great is that? Some of the paintings have sold, but you can find the rest in my Store. The painting above is one that I made from a small on-site piece near Pine Bush, NY.
COMING UP!
I'M BUSILY PAINTING in the Eastern Shore Land Trust's Paint the Shore event, in which painters are invited to visit and paint properties that are held in conservation trusts. It's great fun, and a very special event!
AND THE TWO DAYS after Thanksgiving, Nov.27 and 28, it's the Eastern Shore Artisans Guild Studio Tour, one of the great art events of the year here on the Shore!
I'll have paintings, calendars and potholders in the studio, and my partner Dave Groshong will have Garden Fish, all here at 18 Bayview Ave. in Wachapreague.
Also in town are Artisans Lynne Rogers and Ann Crain, whose home studios are stops on the tour. I believe that some of the Artisans of Wachapreague will have work for sale, and Current Reflections Gallery is sure to be open! Click here for more info
LAST YEAR, Erin Lusk and her husband Thomas bought three of my paintings to make into labels for wine they imported and rebottled.
You can see and buy the bottles - along with paintings by me - and on Saturdays, a produce and artisans market, at the Pearl Market, very close to the north end of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel.
In addition to selling bottles of wine, they'll be selling it by the glass. Oysters and a cheese board complete the offerings. The Pearl Market will be open Fridays-Sundays for the time being.
WORKSHOPS
Come to the studio here at 18 Bayview Ave. in Wachapreague and learn to paint with a palette knife.
Two-day workshops are $375, one-day workshops are $200. Both workshops include most materials. For more information, please click here.
Visit my Studio
I am in the beautiful, expanded studio here at 18 Bayview Ave., Wachapreague, most weekdays from about 10 to about 3, though as with most private artist studios, there's always the potential for unexpected absences. It's smart to touch base before you visit, to make sure I'm here and the dogs are inside. I am always available to schedule an appointment. Reach me at carrieBjacobson@gmail.com,
or 860-442-0246.
