Keith Jacobshagen's paintings indulge the viewer in a quiet solitude. The Kansas born artist presents landscapes that focus on the experience of a space. Somewhere between the merging of land and sky, these paintings expand and envelop the viewer. Minimal in design, articulate in their refinement, these landscape paintings on wood, paper or canvas completely encompass the viewer.
