Maryanne Jacobsen Fine Art

(610) 937-2575 cell

Maryanne Jacobsen is a colorist and contemporary impressionist. She began painting in 2006 after an early retirement from a performing arts career allowed her the opportunity to indulge in a childhood dream to become a visual artist. With color the motivating factor in her desire to paint, she picked up a palette knife and the magic of creation began. The love affair is still in high gear eight years later, and Maryanne feels truly blessed to have found one more passion in a life that has been filled with artistic accomplishments.

While I rely on reality as my inspiration, I’m never a tight realist in my work.  Rather, I like to play with color and texture so that you know the painting surface has been touched and worked on.”

Whittredge’s paintings are now in the collections of numerous museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C.
