Jethro Jackson is an artist living and working in North Cornwall.
Recent projects have taken Jethro away from the aesthetic he has become best known for and given him space to explore a new narrative, concerned with preserving our most precious natural resources and the traditional ways of gathering them.

Whilst still very much connected to his homeland, these paintings are part of a journey towards something new - they represent an exciting aspect of Jethro’s development as a painter who will forever be a Cornishman.
