Canadian
Artist
Kenneth
M.
Kirsch
was
born in Toronto Canada in the mid 1950s.
Ken
received a Graphic Design education from Seneca College in the 1970s
and
has since had a very successful career in Graphics and Advertising.
Working
in the Art and Advertising departments of such historic Canadian institutions
as
Eaton's,
Gray Coach Lines/Toronto Transit Commission and
Rous
Mann & Brigden's Photographers & Engravers,
to
name but a few.
In
the early nineties, a merger and acquisition
of
Ken's own graphic design company Pinpoint
Design Studios,
with
a large International Advertising Agency,
has allowed Ken to devote his passion for painting on a more serious basis.
Working
with Acrylic and Oil paint on stretched canvas,
Ken
paints the Canadian Landscape that he knows and loves,
in
his own unique realist style.
His
paintings may be seen in over 100 Fine Art Galleries
and
private art collections internationally, at an ever increasing demand and
price.
