Karen Jacobi is a visual artist based in Richardson, TX. Her favorite painting subjects are people and everyday landscapes. As an avid traveler, watercolors have been a constant and agreeable companion. She is currently completing an Artist in Residency in Portugal. With the idea that the human element is crucial to our experience of a place, the focus of her residency has been on creating watercolors that integrate people and the place where they live. Karen is an experienced teacher and enjoys sharing her craft with anyone who brings a sense of curiosity.
