Hello, I'm Kevin Jacobs.

Born in North Hollywood​,​ CA​,​ in 1964​,​ Kevin Jacobs is primarily a self-taught fine artist and graphic designer. Although he attended Los Angeles Valley College and the Otis Parsons School of Design in the late 1980s​,​ his formal training was minimal. During college​,​ Kevin was introduced to printmaking​,​ creating etchings and many monotypes. He later gained hands-on experience as a printmaker’s assistant at a fine arts printmaking studio in North Hollywood​,​ where he sharpened his printmaking abilities and developed his expressive atmospheric monotypes. This foundation in printmaking has significantly shaped his current artistic style. In the late 1990s​,​ Kevin made his mark as a commercial graphic designer and art director within the remote control hobby industry​,​ eventually founding Firestarter Graphics. This venture allowed him to further evolve his fine art through dynamic compositions​,​ detailed line work​,​ bold shapes​,​ and a unique expressive style. Kevin’s current work spans multiple media​,​ including paintings​,​ drawings​,​ relief sculptures​,​ paintings​,​ dioramas​,​ collages​,​ and assemblages. His art has been exhibited across the United States and featured in several art journals and publications. Kevin currently resides in Southern California with his blue heeler​,​ Billie.
