About the Author

A native of many generations of Florida, Jackson Walker was born in Panama City, FL in 1946. He spent his childhood and teens in the south Florida town of Stuart. He graduated high school there in 1965. Shortly thereafter he entered the US Army, eventually serving two combat tours in Vietnam before returning home to Florida in 1968.

He is self-taught in his artistic abilities. During his lifetime, he has worked in art-related jobs such as advertising, illustration, graphic design and related fields, while continually pursuing his primary interest in painting in oils. In 1989, He and his wife left Stuart and arrived in Orlando where he has resided and devoted his time fully to painting. Since that time, Jackson Walker has elevated his career to a level of acceptance with collectors, institutions and individuals who have found his works, especially his unique portrayals of Florida and its history.

The centerpiece of Jackson Walker s Career is the creation of the Legendary Florida Collection. This long-term project is a collection of oil paintings that tell stories of individuals and instances that have been significant in the long history of Florida. The collection spans the time from the early Spanish era in the 1500s into the twentieth century; with many stops in between. The collection was purchased in its entirety in 2005 by the then DeLand Museum of Art (now the Museum of Florida Art). And at present, is on view to the public in the rotunda of the old historic Volusia County Courthouse in downtown DeLand.
