Kenneth JACK AM MBE RWS, (5 October 1924 – 10 June 2006)
Australian watercolour artist Kenneth Jack who specialised in painting the images of an almost forgotten outback life; old mine workings, abandoned ghost towns, decaying farm buildings. He became a professional painter at the age of 39 after giving up his job as senior instructor at the Caulfield Institute of Technology. In 1977 he was elected to The Royal Watercolour Society and in 1982 was awarded the MBE, and the Order of Australia (AM) followed in 1987.
Framed three block lino print showing the volcanic plains of Victoria around Stony Rises. It is Number 6 in the Volcanic Plains of Victoria series.
Donated through the Australian Gifts Programme by Katherine Littlewood.31/40artwork, artist, kenneth jack, printmaking, volcano, mt porndon, mount porndon, linocuts
