Arline Jacoby's eyes, mind and hands excite one another into a creative process. Multimedia is her artistic language translating the plasticity of paint and clay, the hardness of stone and the allure of color. The work ranges from classic drawings and paintings to universal concerns. It can be playful or polemical.

Arline Jacoby studied art at Tyler University in Philadelphia and Adelphi University in NY. She later worked in the marble yards and foundries at Petrasanta, Italy. Besides working creatively for many years as an artist and teacher, she had the vision for, and established the Roosevelt Island NY Art association, where she now lives.
