She says, “Don Paul’s death, May 6 was a great loss to his family and the arts community,” Jacobson stated. “I once received a little manilla envelope in the mail addressed with Don’s handwriting. Inside were a collection of colorful copper test plates along with Don’s copious notes on technique. A few months prior, Don and I had discussed my current work on copper and how I might get different colors. This was not just a one off, Don’s unselfish help was freely given to many fellow artists. Don’s spirit lives on in of his example of generosity as well as in his sculpture, and in his jewelry.
