Gary Jacobs, American, 20th/21st century, "Now and Forever", ca. 2000s, oil on canvas, not visibly signed

Note:
Of this painting, Jacobs said "Now and Forever' was the second Pile Painting, and was even tighter and crisper than the first. The objects here are kind of fun and reflect quite well the sort of trancelike gleaning of ordinary items from around the house, gathered in piles in the middle of rooms, brought to the studio and dumped randomly before I chose a section to focus on. A homemade viewfinder helped me get the drawing correct, as I did in the geometric shapes series. This painting and "I Chose Goucher" were ultimately purchased by the Phoenix Home Life Mutual Insurance Company. Note: These pieces have appeared in numerous commercial uses, including Camilo Jose Cela Conde's "Ahora Mismo, Desde Siempre: Cronicas para navegar en tiempos inciertos", published in 2009 (which accompanies this lot) and by Worship Skateboards.
