Formerly Chicago-based artist Ken Keirns may have fled Chicago for the sunny climes of northern California two years ago, but his art has remained a staple in our gallery. Ken's amazing oils are a combination of whimsy and emotion featuring a cast of beautiful women, monkeys and other animals that are sure to amaze.

Artist Bio
Ken Keirns is a Northern California artist who grew up in Flint, Michigan. After spending nearly a decade in Chicago, Ken moved out West in late 2007 to paint full-time and complain about the lack of snow. While his primary focus has been working with oil paint, he has been known to deliver the odd sculpture, toy prototype or mixed media piece. His recurrent subject matter revolves around cranially endowed women and monkeys interlaced with personal experiences, dreams, and the occasional bad pun. Ken's education was in graphic design. He only took a few formal painting classes -- he is mostly self-taught through research and trial & error.
Ken has had three very successful exhibitions at our gallery previously, and we're excited to have him returning for another solo show! Don't miss this one.
