In this blog we will share with you our vision of beauty, balance, harmony.

As Mark Leach writes in his book Raw Colour with Pastels: “Sound is all around us, and it is musicians who refine that sound into something of beauty. As a painter, I have always felt that my purpose is to craft colour in a similar way, to see through the confusion and seek harmony and beauty.”

And we add: Words, fragments of sentences, spoken noise is all around us, and Ken arranges words in such a way as to capture beauty in the accidental, the ambient soundtrack of life.

I like the Way....

I LIKE THE WAY…

I like the way that shirt fits.
Yes, flannel can look girly.
Where Were You? I looked
not everywhere only in the piazza,
the square, the exquisitely well-lit
Plaza Mayor. I am not ready
to climb over nor under everything
thin, uneven or crooked to find you.
No bridges, no canals in Venice, no buttered
scones or stack of waffles sticky with syrup
consumed non-intellectually in a Berkeley diner
while I speculate about the ins-and-outs of your body.
On the other hand, glad I haven’t met you yet. Me,
that folly on two legs, its tongue hanging out, saying
how do you do, nice to meet you, the pleasure’s all yours.
