About the Artist

Ken Keirns is is a Colorado-based artist who grew up in Flint, Michigan. After spending nearly a decade in Chicago, Ken moved out west (Northern California) in late 2007 to paint full-time and complain about the lack of snow (though he has since relocated to Colorado, where there is plenty 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.

A Rotofugi Gallery favorite, this is Ken's eighth solo exhibit in our gallery.
