As a self taught artist, and life long fan of cult film, fringe, and horror/fantasy (he is also an 8-year veteran of a Rocky Horror Picture Show shadow cast), Ken brings his skill and his passion together to offer you his artistic vision in pen and ink drawings, pencil drawings, watercolor, and sculpture (either found-object or upcycled art).
Ken was born in Columbus, Ohio xyzpdq (cough cough) years ago. An only child, Ken spent a lot of time reading books and creating “escapism” from the every-day woes of life by writing short stories, crafting dioramas or making early attempts at drawing. His attraction to all things Creative included photography as well as pencil and ink drawing where he started to recognize the impact of composition and contrast, scale and shape (and discovered the hidden properties of glitter and rhinestones). He credits his High School photography teacher Mrs. Zimmerman for encouraging his interest in presenting things in unexpected, and sometimes unrecognizable ways. Thanks, Zim!
Over the years Ken has had multiple showings of his art at First Thursdays at the Orlando Museum of Modern Art, SOBO Gallery in Winter Garden, LOTS of annual State Fairs, one Super Bowl event, and has even sold "several many" of his sculptures & Atomic Space Ray Guns made from found objects!
Drawing, sculpture and painting has always been a priority and a passion in Ken’s daily life. Ken’s basic art credo is as follows; “Art is like life; some people stand by & observe it; others make it more. Some dream about it; others LIVE it more; and many others forget… then suddenly realize its been passing them by. All of that is my Art”.
