For forty-five years, Ken has been painting and selling his works. Over 200 of his 500 or so canvases and masonite works are hanging in homes all over North America, with a few in Europe.

Ken is a self-taught artist but has learned from every artist he has met as well as from nature and private study. His work in acrylic covers several genres. Still life, land and seascapes, fantasy (fairy and space paintings)....and figure study.

Ken's pursuit of beauty through light and shadow and 3 dimension are obvious. His sense of colour is beautiful and consistent in all his works.

After years of successful songwriting and playing his music in Halifax, Montreal, Hollywood etc.. Ken moved back to Canada to Toronto where he paid his dues in the Queen Street art scene and eventually was represented by the art gallery "The Gallery Wall" where he showed and sold his paintings in the prestigious Bloor West Village for 13 years.

Ken is now back in his home province and home town Saint John NB. Some of Kens small works were shown at the Trinity Gallery in Saint John, as well as a three-month showing of his larger works at the Harrison House Gallery.

Several of his paintings are hanging in the True North Musicians Gallery Of Fine Arts in Waterdown, Ontario alongside Tony Bennet, Sir Paul McCartny, Bob Dylan, Buffy St. Marie, Ron Woods, Andy Warhol to name just a few.

Ken is still active with his music but spending most of his time now painting.
