One of the hundreds of citizens inspecting Aldermaston earlier this week was the artist Kurt Jackson. He’s best known for his paintings of the Cornish landscape, but it turns out he’s also a dab hand at sketching nuclear weapons facilities. In the rain. Under the scrutiny of nosy police officers. Here's are a few of his sketches of the weapons inspectors outside Aldermaston, done in pencil, ink and charcoal (click on the thumbnails for to see them full sized):
