About Me

Jacob Brest: Born in Sacramento in 1986 and raised in California throughout his life. After years of painting portraits and landscapes in the strict confines of realism, Brest abandoned that style all-together in an attempt to communicate his world in a more organic way- he wanted freedom. "Im tired of manipulating paints, looking at a picture and always knowing what Im going to paint," he said "I wanted to make something raw, bold- I paint from my mind now, and I really dont always know what I'll paint next, because Im painting as I feel it, not something that's already there. It's a beautiful thing how your mind makes you unique- and that's what this is, its the chance of every drip, the anger in my brushstrokes, its me." His work is just that- a testament to the immediate inter-workings of this artist's mind.
