Interests and Personality
| Biography | I have been a resident of Hampshire for all my life, and as I lived near the sea, and not excelling at other sports, I took up dinghy racing in my teens. Many years later after winning two championships, my increasing age was starting to tell and I retired from the competitive sailing scene.
I still remember the thrill when I sold my first picture. Now with over 200 originals sold in the UK, USA, Canada and Europe, I still get a buzz when a painting is sold, though you do become attached to them, and am sad to see them go. I tell my wife that she must not be sentimental over it.
Obviously my love of the sea mean that marine and coastal subjects feature significantly in my work. I am also fortunate to have some beautiful English countryside nearby to inspire me, and I try to capture the magic of this in my landscape paintings.
Examples of some of my previous work and commissions can be seen on my website www.artyman.co.uk |

Hi Ken, your sea and landscapes are brilliant. It's good to see them here on the black background. I hope you will add the other beauties also soon. Like the wonderful cars.

Hi Ken, Thanks for stopping by. I checked out your website. Congrats on your sales. You do a great job with the boats, as well as your landscapes. I really liked "Just Add Water", the title really makes it work. Keep painting!
