The bold, expressionistic art of Jeanette Luchese Jacobs engages the viewer on a sensory level. Her art practice is an exploration of pure emotional responses made real through the act of creating primarily by intuition. The free flow of inner consciousness translates to imagery that primarily evokes a response through its sensual nature. Whether through printmaking, painting or sculpture she considers her art a visual narrative of Inner Landscapes exposed through a journey of self-discovery.
Jeanette Luchese Jacobs graduated from Sheridan College, in Graphic Design plus holds a post-graduate diploma in Web-Design and Production from Georgian College. For the past five years her interests have moved her towards reclaiming a path of Visual Arts.

Jill Price
Open House
Sunday Feb 5 from 1 to 3
Continuing on with her series of "Fabricated Landscapes" recently shown at Double Door Gallery in Antem Mills, Ontario Jill Price will feature 5 new works that examine our rapidly changing landscapes.
These new pieces are in response to Barrie adjusting it's southern boundary to include 2,293 hectares of land currently in the Town of Innisfil, as well as Price's observation of undeveloped pockets of land nestled within our city limits that point to our rural beginnings.
Currently living two streets away from farmland, Price finds herself on the edge of suburban sprawl, something she has coined "RURBIA". Photo based these mixed media works visually investigate how our culture simultaneously mimics and destroys nature through its industrious design and development.
