The protagonist inhabits a world that is only half real, half dream and all illusion. She struggles through a world of her own imagining, a battle, a quest, lost in her own private dreamscape. She brings tidings, news, proclamations but who will hear her message?
This painting is a variation upon an old theme. I have made many works that inhabit the space where plane and form intersect. I like to play with the dynamics of the rounded and the flattened, rhyming to the eye that so wants to see shape and space where there is only paint. What is in, is out and what is out is only sometimes in. The spaces lie and the shapes deceive. As a painter I trick and giggle into my palette. Down here I am God.

As is often found in my work the protagonist inhabits a world that is only half real, half dream and all illusion. She struggles through a world of her own imagining, a battle, a quest, lost in her own private dreamscape. She brings tidings, news, proclamations but who will hear her message?

The Herald
She is more than beautiful and an inspiration to me. Incredible artwork! Really unique! Gives unique feeling in the room where we have it and its energy feels very alive. It projects something special to the whole house; like a divine protection. The intersection of true artful human expression and well-tended subconscious emanations - this is how I see Jake's art, and especially 'Gemini.' Exquisite!!! The Quest’s sumptuous colors come to life as she invites the viewer to join her on her journey! She is printed on the most lovely paper. She exudes with beauty! Thank you for this beautiful piece! Excellent A real masterpiece A masterpiece, I love it Dit is het tweede werk dat ik heb gekocht van Jake. Het intrigerende The Lady Vanishes uit 2013 smaakte naar meer, waarop ik besloot mijn verzameling aan te vullen met Spiritus Sanctus, een totaal ander werk (kleiner en op op paneel) uit 2015. Gekocht via de website, dus een gokje hoe het zou uitpakken. Maar ik heb er geen spijt van. Het is een mooie uitbreiding, waar ik met veel plezier en bewondering van geniet. Great quality and work! Very good communication with the provider and hand-signed by Jake ! A piece of art that finds its “owner” by the energy level. Excellent painting. Good service

I was delighted to come across Jake's art. The process of discovery and acquisition of the print have been wonderfully human and pleasant. Mark is an absolute delight in correspondence. I can't wait to have the print back from the framers' and hang it on my wall. I may just place a chair before it and sit with it when I feel in need of a meaningful conversation.
Thank you, Jake & MarkVerified ownerVerified ownerVerified ownerVerified ownerVerified owner
