Ken Anderson

Ken Anderson is of Tlingit and Scandinavian ancestry. He believes that the Northwest Coast art form is both purely creative and limitless from an artist’s point of view. He also believes the art form is representational of something larger than the artist, namely a living culture.

Anderson works in the Tlingit style. He enjoys the challenges of composition and creating balance within his art. He believes that art should be interactive and contemporary while adhering to the high standard and rules of the old masters.

Anderson credits the old masters, the purity and laws of the natural world and anyone who attempts to live life to the fullest as his inspirations.
