Ken Brown
Born in 1923 at Keoma, Alberta, Mr. Brown grew up on the family farm and attended Keoma and Kathyrn public schools. He is a graduate of the University of Alberta and Oregon State University, and taught Industrial Arts in the Edmonton Public School system until retirement in 1981.

As an Albertan, he has a deep love for the Alberta landscape with its prairies, rolling foothills and majestic mountains. Through the medium of watercolour, Kenneth attempts to capture the peace, tranquility and majesty of this scene which inspires and provides the subject matter for most of his paintings.

Since the late fifties Mr. Brown has studied painting through the Edmonton Public School Continuing Education program, the University of Alberta Department of Extension, numerous workshops sponsored by the Federation of Canadian Artists and private lessons.

Mr. Brown's paintings may be found in many private collections in Western Canada, U.S.A., Australia, England, Switzerland, and the Hong Kong Bank Calgary. One of his paintings was featured in the 1997 Alberta Treasury Branch calendar and another in the Winter Book published by Mentor Communications Inc. of Edmonton. Mr. Brown is also a signature artist of the Federation of Canadian Artists.
