In 1997, his then three-year-old eldest daughter suffered neurological damage following a rabies vaccination after she had been bitten by an unidentified mammal while on vacation.[3][4] Jakelj and his family entered a protracted lawsuit against the state.[5][6] Jakelj indicates that he began painting after her injury due to her love of art.[2]
In 2001, he founded the charitable foundation "4 Help 2 Children",[2] which he supports with a portion of the proceeds from his painting.[7] In 2013 he had four exhibitions in two months:
- Slovenian National Gallery in Ljubljana ( March 2013)
- Špas Theatre Mengeš Slovenia ( April 2013)
- Monaco, Grimaldi Forum, the Art Monaco ( April 2013)
- Barranquilla, Colombia, Barranquillaart ( April, May 2013)
His artworks have been privately auctioned by Christie's Auction Company in Monaco and Barranquillarte.
