Honora Jacob Figurative Paintings

American
BIO Honora Jacob received her first Bachelors Degree in Communication Arts from the University of Texas to pursue a career as an advertising art director. Twenty-two years later, a move to Kentucky provided her with time to reflect on her life path. She then turned her attention to a career change following her first passion, painting, and returned to university to receive her second Bachelors Degree, a B.F.A. in Studio Arts. After which, she attended the Masters of Fine Arts program in Painting at the University of Kentucky. A return to Texas in 2003, initiated a period of dividing her time between the U.S. and the U.K., where the experience of living as a non-native provided inspiration for her early narrative works. Fast forward to 2018, Ms. Jacob relocated to Kentucky once again, where she currently resides full-time. My recent work, “Contemporary Histories” and “Myths, Legends and Lore” consists of narrative portraits of women from life and fiction. Gleaned from history, mythology and legendary tales, the women that inhabit these works range from icons and role models to feminine identities.
