Kenneth Jack AM MBE (1924 – 2006) was an Australian watercolour artist and printmaker who specialised in painting the images of an almost forgotten outback life: old mine workings, ghost towns, decaying farm buildings. His awards include the Crouch Watercolour prize, the Trustees Watercolour Prize The Wynne Competition, Tattersall's Art Award and the Camberwell Rotary Art Prize. Kenneth was the only Australian born member of the Royal Watercolour Society in London. Kenneth is represented in collections such as that of the British Roral Family, The Australian National Gallery, the Art Gallery of New South Wales, the Art Gallery of South Australia, the Art Gallery of Western Australia, The Australian War Memorial, London's Victoria, and Victoria Albert Museum, to name a few.
