Larry Jacox grew up in southern Washington state but has lived in the Reno and northern Nevada area since 1960. He was an art major at Univ. of Washington in Seattle and finished his degree in Art Education at UNR.
       He worked for a number of years for Washoe County Schools then switched to the Nevada bureau of Mines where he worked as a graphic artist, draftsman and cartographer until retiring 12 years ago.
       Larry’s work most recently has been largely watercolors due to an allergy to oil painting materials. His subject matter is mostly the western area landscape, but occasionally an aviation picture of people scene sneaks in.
       He’s involved with the local art clubs and has been teaching a watercolor class at the Elder College in Reno for several years. His work may be seen at the Artist’s Co-op at 627 Mill Street in Reno.
