Kurt Jackson

Kurt Jackson (born 21 September 1961) is a British painter whose large canvases reflect a concern with natural history, ecology and environmental issues.

Born in Blandford, Dorset, the son of two painters,[1] he developed an early interest in natural history and landscape.

[citation needed] In 1984 he and his wife Caroline Jackson moved to Cornwall; currently (2014), he lives and works near St Just, Penwith.

He is an ambassador for Survival International and frequently works with Friends of the Earth, Greenpeace, WaterAid, Oxfam, Surfers Against Sewage and Cornwall Wildlife Trust.

[citation needed] In 2024, Jackson was made a bard of Gorsedh Kernow for "promoting Cornish Identity and Culture" through his work.
