This one means more to me than I can put into words. ❤️
Marlin Magazine recently published a beautiful tribute to my dad, Hy Jacobson, and his life and work as a marine artist and sculptor.
My dad could take a piece of teak and turn it into something that felt alive. Growing up around his art, I don’t think I realized just how much of that creativity was being passed down to me.
Today, when I’m sculpting a cake, shaping details by hand, or figuring out how to turn an idea into something three-dimensional, I know exactly where that part of me came from.
I may have traded teak for cake and fondant, but I got my creativity and love of sculpting from my dad. ❤️
I’m so proud to be his daughter and to carry a little piece of his artistry forward in my own way.
Thank you, Marlin Magazine, for honoring my dad and featuring him one last time. It means more to me and my family than you know.
Forever missed. Forever inspiring me. ❤️
