KEN ORTON - A Story of Light and it's interaction with objects, man-made and natural.


Ken Orton is a figurative painter. He lives in Roxbury in the Catskill Mountains 130 miles north of New York City.

In recent years his landscape and still-life work has focused repeatedly on the disused and redundant, using dilapidated motels, rusting old cars and mothballed aircraft as his themes

He has traveled from Alcatraz to Block Island and uses his skills as a draughtsman and colourist in producing a body of unique and sensitive images, an Englishman's poignant vision of the images and lost toys of the American Dream

Ken is represented and his wonderful art is available at our gallery Osterville Fine Art & Design.
