About The Artwork
"The Girls", was sparked by a pair of wild owls that took up residency in our side yard because it was part of a wild animal "safe haven" for small desert animals. At first I was cautious about their presence in case they were surveying their next meal, but within two days it became apparent that they, instead, viewed the area as a resting place - perhaps because so many other small animals felt safe to freely roam unmolested. They stayed for about two weeks, then moved on, but the way they always remained close together during their visit, sparked a comedic, whimsical idea that produced the combination of desert-mountain-scape images in this painting with a "human" twist. A simplified, rougher use of expressionist paint handling was chosen, with vivid complementary colors in places to highlight key desert elements and to fully portray the comic idea, setting, and lives of this owl pairing.

Originally from Manhattan, New York, Ken lived for several decades around the U.S. and Western Europe, always pursuing his writing and painting interests. He now lives in the Southwestern U.S. that he refers to as, "A magic land of radiant light." One Los Angeles Weekly art critic noted about Ken's paintings, "This art continually displays a vital interplay of simplified lines interwoven in vibrant complementary colors. These combinations often create an emotional energy that deftly impacts viewers." Ken's preferred artistic focus shifts mainly - but not only - between abstract and expressionistic imagery. In one interview, he stated, "Painting more than writing centers me as a person, and that keeps me awake to vital elements surrounding me. In my studio, by minimizing daily distractions, at the best of times I capture the gifts of visual energy that depict love or anger, serenity or courage, compassion and freedom, most often with hope for all people. I cannot think of a better way to share living experiences."
