“Consuming My Illusion” 9” x 12” paper, acrylic, and cardboard. - September 1, 2024

I Feel Pretty Good About This Painting

Quinn Jacobson September 1, 2024

In some cultures, fish are believed to be messengers of the spirit world, connecting the living and the ancestors.
I've been painting and working with these two figures for a while. I did a painting that was very "primitive" using the drawing here of the homo sapien. The fish is something that I've been working around in ideas. This is multimedia piece; 9" x 12" paper, acrylic and cardboard.

“What the herd hates most is the one who thinks differently; it is not so much the opinion itself, but the audacity of wanting to think for themselves, something that they do not know how to do.”
— Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)
