Russell Jacobs
Las Vegas, Nevada
Artist Russell Jacobs explores the delicate balance between structured composition and abstract expression. His artworks evolve organically, characterized by flowing lines, interlocking shapes, and vibrant colors. Russell prefers to paint spontaneously, consciously avoiding direct visual or written references. "I maintain ambiguity in my subject matter, providing viewers with a wider range of interpretation and content," says Russell. He switches between different acrylic-based media, with each decision influencing the subsequent ones in his paintings. His home studio in Las Vegas provides a comfortable and efficient space where he creates under natural light. When he is not making art, Russell finds joy in traveling and exploring the works of other creative individuals.

Artist Statement

My artistic focus lies in exploring the delicate balance between structured composition and abstract expression. I employ a spontaneous approach, allowing the subject matter to evolve organically into compositions characterized by flowing lines, interlocking shapes, and vibrant colors. Sometimes, these elements coalesce into dynamic layers; other times, they remain as flattened, static surfaces. Each creative process shapes a unique, cohesive tension that alters the visual depth and spatial dynamics of my work. I work exclusively with acrylic on canvas and paper to realize these artistic visions.
