Born on June 17th, 1976, Ken is an artist who was born and raised in Providence in Rhode Island, U.S.A. He creates scratch art using crayons and pastels.
Feature of his work is created from a creative point of view that is not too figurative nor too abstract, with a depth of material and vivid colors painted in multiple layers. The silence is filled with the joy and love, and it snuggles upon the viewer's feeling of loneliness and nostalgia.
Ken had participated in the group exhibition in 2017 in New York for the first time. He then started solo exhibitions in Japan such as Tokyo, Chiba, Kyoto, Niigata, etc.
"The key to open the door of unknown may be in the painting ... I put that feeling my work."
