“This is a book to cherish, equally for its artwork and for its at-times lyrical writing.”
Review by John Cooper
ACAP Information Officer
‘Troubled Waters’ is a triumphant exemplar of the growing role that art can play in driving wildlife conservation by raising awareness and inspiring positive action.
“…his work at sea has the freedom, fluidity and confidence of someone liberated by deep inner knowledge of his subject and highly energised by its sense of theatre and conservation urgency. Pearson’s mastery of not only seabird body language but also of wind, waves and light, combines to render this a passionate, compelling and visceral portfolio”.
“This is a wonderful book”.

Review by Professor Andrew Clarke
"Bruce Pearson has no equal in this genre of framing nature in its raw environment. The majesty of flight is captured to perfection. The sea and spume flies off the page with the unique Antarctic landscapes full of the magic light and colour unique to these regions. Bruce is simply the very best, a true master, entering this book you are riding the waves with the artist and his subjects. Truly beautiful"!
“Fascinating insights beautifully illustrated. A well thought personal account which really gives you the feel of the place and its wildlife”.
“Superbly illustrated book based on paintings made during many visits to the Southern Ocean”.

The book was the result of an exhibition at the wildlife Art Gallery in 2003 when rather than produce an exhibition catalogue we all felt a book might add more to the show. It would provide an opportunity to add descriptions of the places and encounters with wildlife that together formed the content of the exhibition.
