Hi. It’s me Ken

Your friendly neighborhood watercolor documentarian

I paint portraits.

Pet portraits, people portraits, pop up portraits, building portraits.

You may catch me making sketchbook paintings of cafés, coffeeshops, restaurants, flower shops, and so on and so forth. Is your favorite local available as a print or in my book? If not, let me know where to go and I’ll meet you there! We can capture it together :)

I’ve got a newsletter, and people love it
