Martin Jacobs

Martin is a painter who derives interest from a number of different sources - often places with which he has a long association - which he then likes to play with in the studio, often exploring through different media. Martin’s works explore and share his emotional connections, where with strong tonal composition and limited palette, the results reduce subjects to a structured, rational foundation. The eye, the hand and the heart.

“Not known, because not looked for, but heard, half-heard, in the stillness between two waves of the sea.” T.S.Eliot

He has participated in exhibitions over many years including at the Royal Watercolour Society of which he is a member (ARWS), Institute of Painters in Watercolour, Spink & Son, The Sunday Times Watercolour Competition, NEAC, ING Discerning Eye, Linden Hall Studio and has work in a number of collections including HRH Princes of Wales.
