pattern organization."

"Rick
Jacobi’s unique artistic voice resounds far above the ubiquitous chorus
of psychedelic monotony and meaningless abstraction. His deep affinity
with the ancient mysteries emerges in a most delectable way through his
vibrant palette and fine technique. For every step the
deconstructionists took toward abandoning decency and forsaking
technique, Rick takes 10 steps closer to honesty and attention to
detail. He elucidates our strange predicament on this strange planet
and his critically important imagery challenges his admirers and peers
alike."
