Copy of Boy’s Portrait in Museum

Hello Joanne and Marilyn,

 

I have attached a .pdf of the postcard for the exhibit in which the portrait of the little boy with raspberries on his fingers appears – it’s made quite a hit!

 

I have also attached an image of the portrait as it appears in the gallery. We have used a combination of original artifacts and reproductions to tell the story of how childhood has changed – and stayed the same – in American culture over the last four centuries. If you happen to be in the area during the summer and would like to visit the museum, please let me know and I will be sure to leave your name(s) at the reception desk so you can come in as our guest(s).

About Marilyn Jacobson

Hi! I'm Marilyn. I'm the woman in the middle picture at the top of the page. Life is such an adventure! Before retirement, I was a Social Worker in a cancer center. I had the priveledge of working with people in all conditions of life: birth, joy, sorrow, conflict, problem-solving, decision-making, end-of-life, reconciliation, hope. After retirement, I discovered I have a talent for portrait painting! My goal as a portrait painter is capturing the personality of people and pets in paintings. I think I'm able to do this because of my Social Work experiences. I have painted many commissions of people and pets, usually from a photograph. If needed, two or more photographs can be combined into one painting. My pictures usually tell a story, or there's a story behind them.... And just for fun, I also create other art in addition to portraits. I hope you enjoy my paintings as much as I enjoy creating them. Capture a special memory or occasion with a beautiful painting!

    I see no brown faces…

      You are right… there are no brown faces. I didn’t choose the paintings for the museum display. You can write to the museum. I’ve painted portraits of children and adults of many races, cultures and skin tones, but have not posted any. They were all gifts, and as such, I didn’t make a copy of the paintings.
