'If it is possible to say a book smells and tastes of the sea...I love the sea and I feel as if Kurt Jackson has captured it in all its moods just for me to take to some place where I'll never see or hear it again, but the memory will be indelibly etched in these pages by these glorious, life affirming paintings. The Chinese have a saying that you can never cross the same river twice. They are right and the same holds true for the view of the sea from a great artist at the peak of his powers'. Sir Tim Smit KBEExecutive Co-Chair Eden Project International and Executive Vice Chair & Co-Founder Eden Project
