+ https://instagram.com/jroooo

Los Angeles born and raised, Coulter Jacobs works for the Department of Water and Power by day and creates in his San Pedro studio by night. His art is jammed full of American traditional tattoo images through Picasso-tinted glasses, & New York School abstract influence. Growing up in a generation and blue-collar work environment that doesn't encourage vulnerability, Jacobs steps out as the odd ball, celebrating sensitivity and creative expression.

Featuring: Coulter Jacobs, Nathan Kostechko, Bert Krak, Chad Koeplinger, Sofia Heftersmith, Joshua Marks, Jeff Sypherd, Johnny Rios Ness, Taren Coulter.
