When I was a young boy, (8 or 9), our local Sunday paper would have a weekly floor plan of a top home design. I would clip out the article and then redesign the plans in my own way. No doubt these exercises helped me develop my sense of space and composition. Because of my early experiences with drawing, I became attracted to the early master draftsmen like Leonardo da Vinci, Albrecht Duerer and Rembrandt. As I matured as an artist, I learned to understand and appreciate painters like Picasso, De Kooning, and the German Expressionists. I try to bring to my photography a passion for expression through composition, colour, texture; a poetic, rather than a journalistic approach.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-1505 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/night-music.jpg'><img width=\"184\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/night-music-184x250.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/night-music-184x250.jpg 184w, https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/night-music-221x300.jpg 221w, https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/night-music.jpg 443w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 184px) 100vw, 184px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/lacey-maze.jpg'><img width=\"187\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/lacey-maze-187x250.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/lacey-maze-187x250.jpg 187w, https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/lacey-maze-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/lacey-maze.jpg 449w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 187px) 100vw, 187px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/avian-jazz.jpg'><img width=\"184\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/avian-jazz-184x250.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/avian-jazz-184x250.jpg 184w, https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/avian-jazz-221x300.jpg 221w, https:\/\/www.photosyn.ca\/previous\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/avian-jazz.jpg 443w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 184px) 100vw, 184px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Ken received his BFA from Cal State University, Northridge, California in 1972.
