Patty Jacobs, a native of Northern California, is primarily a self-taught artist, drawing and painting since childhood. Her work focuses on her love of animals and she donates a percentage from the sale of these paintings to animal charities.

Patty has shown her work around California and has been commissioned for numerous pet portraits. Her paintings can be found at Taylor's Art and Soul in Sacramento and also at Gold Country Artist's Gallery, where they have been purchased by visitors from various places in the U.S., Scotland, England, Ireland, and Australia.

Artist Statement:

As a small child I developed a love of all things furry. This bond,  which has deepened throughout the years, is why I paint animals. Their  character quirks and personalities shine through their eyes and are the focus of my work. A bond develops and they become my treasured friends.

I translate my affection for these innocent creatures onto gessoed  paper, using loose layers of pigment to create the illusion of fur and feathers.
