The sister of Caroline JACKSON and Enid JACKSON, she arrived in St Ives in 1926 from Birkenhead. Although not a STISA member, she did exhibit with them on one occasion; Alice was more a stalwart of the Arts Club, where she acted in many productions.
Her sister, Caroline, exhibited a sculpture of Alice in the STISA 1934 Summer Exhibition.
The landscape artist studied at Herkomer's School at Bushey, Hertfordshire, and is known to have exhibited at the Ridley Art Club.
Whybrow notices her presence in St Ives in her listing for 1901-1910 at the Arts Club there.
Caroline was one of six daughters of a wealthy Liverpool stockbroker whose family home was in Birkenhead. She was the eldest, but at least two of the other Jackson girls - Therese JACKSON and Enid JACKSON - came to St Ives periodically and shared lodgings at Bowling Green Terrace.
Caroline Jackson was a sculptor, working primarily in plaster, but exhibiting the occasional bronze and some small plasticine figures. Having moved to St Ives in about 1904, she joined the Arts Club in 1906, although her work is not mentioned at exhibitions until 1910.
At Lanham's in 1914 she showed A quiet afternoon. She contributed work to STISA shows from 1928, and although not a founder member, she was the only exhibiting sculptor member of STISA in its first ten years of existence. In 1928 she was living at 8 Bowling Green Terrace, St Ives.
Mentioned in Whybrow's 1921-39 list of artists in and around St Ives, the sisters lived at 8 Bowling Green, St Ives.
Enid was also one of the six Jackson daughters who spent time in St Ives, though the family home was in Birkenhead near Liverpool. She is first recorded with a St Ives address in 1905 (J&G), and Tovey references her presence in his social history of the St Ives art colony. She exhibited at the Goupil Gallery in London, in the London Salon and also at the NEA on three occasions.
Born in Bristol, the son of the landscape painter Samuel JACKSON, he also became his father's pupil. A particular interest in sunlight, mist, clouds and sea attracted him to coastal views.
Chiefly a watercolourist, his earliest works were of the coasts of Cornwall and Devon, his painting of Land's End, Cornwall (according to Wood) being a good example. The interest of John Ruskin was aroused by these, and Martin Hardie complimented his hazy effects. His more relevant connection to landscape became in time with the Thames Valley and Wales.
The address for the Rev Jackson was the St Ruan Rectory near Helston, Cornwall in 1880, though by 1884 this had moved to Stanmore, Middlesex.
It appears as if Frederick Jackson had been in Cornwall for some years before that, as he exhibited six watercolours at Smith Street (SS) in the five years between 1868 and 1873. Wood comments that he also exhibited two marine paintings at the RA between 1878 and 1884. He is also known to have exhibited at the Dudley Gallery on at least one occasion. Further information about him remains still to be gathered.
Paul Jackson qualified in Studio Ceramics in 1977 at Harrow School of Art. Following a short period teaching in London, he relocated to Cornwall, where he established his pottery in 1979. He moved to his present home at Helland Bridge, near Bodmin, where he works in a studio converted from an old chapel, in 1989. He has exhibited regularly and widely in both the UK and the US, and his work can be found in many major galleries. He collaborates with fellow potter Chris PRINDL.
He exhibits at Gallery TRESCO on the Isles of Scilly. His son Jethro JACKSON is also an artist and the owner of Porthilly Gallery.
In an article written by Norman GARSTIN for the 1912 December issue of The Studio, Jackson is one of only five fellow-artists mentioned in The Art of Harold and Laura Knight, when recalling their decade based at Staithes on the Yorkshire coast. Also mentioned is Henry Silkstone HOPWOOD, who had also been in the St Ives colony that same year.

Rachel Jakeman works from Krowji Studios, Redruth. She was born in London and undertook a BA (Hons) in Fine Art at Falmouth University.
A NAG exhibitor who sold Silent Tone in 1903, James was a figurative and domestic painter with sending-in addresses in London and, subsequently, Bideford in Devon.
A London resident, James exhibited at the RA from 1881-1898. Wood explains (and illustrates) that James as a marine painter was more interested in pure studies of the sea rather than topographical coastal views, and was particularly good at painting waves. Much of his work was painted on the Cornish coast, and his titles reveal this interest.
Sending-in addresses for the artist include Plymouth (1883), Bowden, Devon (1885), Dalston (1886) and London (1892).
Armelle James is based in Saltash and is a painter of landscapes in oil.
Demelza James is a Fine Art graduate from Falmouth University,who lives and works in Cornwall.

Born in London, he took evening classes under Mr Nicholson at the Birmingham Art School whilst selling Insurance by day. In WWI he served as an Officer in the Worcestershire Regiment, in charge of building bridges and blockhouses. After the War, he settled in Reddich, and went on camping tours around the south of England.
In 1926 he studied at the FORBES SCHOOL of Painting, and some of this early work is signed F Jamieson-Smith. In the mid-1930s he moved to St Ives and rented the Loft Studio, becoming a member of the newly formed St Ives Society of Artists. His first exhibition with them was in the 1939 Autumn Exhibition.
His work was frequently exhibited with John Anthony PARK, Arthur HAYWARD, and Dorothea SHARP, all of whose work have a shared resonance. Frank met his wife, Joyce, on his travels, marrying shortly before World War II in Penzance Registry Office. During a prolonged painting visit in Ireland, their daughter Daphne, was born. He exhibited his work at the Royal Hibernian Academy of Arts in Dublin. By 1946 he had moved to 42 High Street, Falmouth, with a studio overlooking the River Fal. A major studio collection of his work was sold in Penzance in 1994 (WH Lane & Son).
The painter-sculptor was born in Edinburgh, the son of a newspaper editor. Jameson's address in 1881 was in Paris, followed by time spent in Etaples, Pas de Calais (1887), and then back to London before arriving in St Ives about 1889. In 1891 his painting, Toilers of the sea, was shown at the Royal Academy (now in St Ives Museum). In 1893 his sending-in address was in St Ives.
He had moved back to Scotland, to Glasgow, by 1896. Thereafter, he appears to have to lived mainly in London although he exhibited with the Cornish artists at their Whitechapel Exhibition in 1902. Nevertheless, his address had moved back to Paris the following year, so it is to be supposed that he continued to share his time between the two cities.
The artist daughter of the late artist Frank JAMESON, two of her works are illustrated in the Public Catalogue Foundation review of paintings lodged in Cornish museums and galleries.
Roger Jardine was born on the Isle of Wight and educated in Dover. He spent a number of years in Norfolk before moving to Cornwall in the 1980s. He now lives near Bodmin and paints and exhibits locally.

Jacqueline Jarvis graduated from Falmouth College of Arts in 1996 with a BA in Fine Art. She lives in north Cornwall and has exhibited both regionally and nationally. A fascination for the passage of time finds expression in works which portray movement in sport. Close trackside observation of events has led to the creation of prints and sketches of the GB cycling team in action.
Carl Jaycock lives and works in Penzance. His artistic focus is on colour and the essence of place, celebrating and distilling out of the west country visual experiences, from which arise meditative and colourful artworks. His practice often explores the use of micro and macro combinations of imagery, which are meticulously brought together using traditional art skills via digital processes.
He was born in Old Windsor and the family moved many times. In 1990 he obtained an MA in Fine Art from UCE (now Birmingham City University) and in 1999 studied Multimedia with Academic Theory via Lighthouse and Sussex University. He also has a Southern Regional Diploma in 3D Design from Berkshire College of Art & Design.
After graduating he travelled and studied, living for a short time in Italy and Malaysia, which influenced his art practice.
In 2002 Carl was the winner of the 'Sotheby Shrewsbury Open' and the following year he was awarded the 'International Open Image' prize at the Deluxe Gallery, Hoxton Square.
His work has been widely exhibited in the UK and beyond, and he has gained international recognition with many artworks held in public and private collections.
He has undertaken over thirty public art commissions. In 2010 he created the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson Memorial Project for the entrance area of London's University College Hospital. This was followed by a large-scale artwork for the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association in the Houses of Parliament (2011/12). In 2015 he created Remembrance Field, a large scale art installation commemorating World War I for St Mary's Church, Shrewsbury.
