Carol Jacobsen, Artist

My current series, Women of Color and Accomplishment, was started as a result of my research into the BLM movement in 2020. Learning about many Black women who had done incredible things despite major obstacles, I decided to honor those women by painting their portraits.

My most recent paintings (above) are from my third book in the series: Women of Color and Accomplishment: Doing the Right Thing. It will be published in October of 2023/

Women of Color and Accomplishment (The 1st Book) is available on online and at my studio. It contains 31 portraits and brief bios.

Women of Color and Accomplishment: Fighting for Equality was published in October, 2022 with 30 additional portraits and bios of historical Black women of achievement. This book is available online or at my studio. Here are a few of the women who are in this book.
