Working primarily in acrylic, oil, oil pastel, charcoal, water color and photography.

Having been the feature story in the online art newspaper, Art Expo News hailed Jakara as an artist to watch. Jakara has been flying under the radar art scene and, now has emerged as one of the art scene's who's who in recent months. This artist has captured the public with a fresh, original, and a new view of abstract contemporary art. The titles on her art pieces are as significant as the art piece itself. The use of vibrant colors and textures all play into each unique piece. Jakara has an extensive art background and combines her technique and personality into each and every painting, capturing the eye of the art community. Even Jakara's web site, is a reflection of imagination, originality and creativity. Having recently exhibited at the Infusion Art Gallery in Los Angeles, as well as exhibiting at the Saatchi Gallery online in London and, being invited to exhibit at the Amsterdam Whitney Gallery in New York, this is one artist Art Expo News thinks should be watched
