JACOB KOHN - painter
Painter Jacob Kohn is continually drawn back to the watery places of the natural world.
“I have returned time and again to the realism of nature as a subject because it provides me with a visual language that best expresses the abstract energy and emotional color that I find essential in my art,” Kohn said.
The shifting forms created by moving water, the vibrant plant-life colors, the rich contrasts of pattern and hue in nature and the effects of light on water, give this artist plenty of elements for inspiration.
