FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
November artist announced for W.A.S. online gallery
Harold Jacobson’s abstract work featured on Society’s website Wellington, FL, October 14, 2009 – The Wellington Art Society has named local abstract painter Harold Jacobson as the Featured Artist for the month of November on the Society’s online Gallery Show.
Jacobson, a resident of West Palm Beach and W.A.S. member, uses vivid colors and loose brush strokes to convey his unique views on life in a free-form style. Although the artist was raised in an artistic family, he did not pursue his artistic dreams until retirement. Primarily self-taught, Jacobson has attended many workshops to help enhance his artistic abilities. His work has been exhibited in juried and non-juried fine art shows, and included in private and corporate collections.
The online one-man show features twelve of Jacobson’s paintings and runs through November 30. All works are available for purchase. You can view the exhibit by visiting the Gallery Show section on the Society’s website, www.welingtonartsociety.org.
