About the Item

The Branch, Oil on Canvas Painting by Ken Craft, 2024 The work is meant to exist as both traditional easel painting and as a form of comics. Additional information: Medium: Oil on canvas Condition: Excellent Frame: Not included Dimensions: 32 × 42 in 81.3 × 106.7 cm About artist: Ken Craft (b. 1967 New Mexico) is an artist based in Dallas, TX. His work reflects an interest in representational scene painting alongside cartoon story telling. Craft is creating original comics characters for his paintings. He’s influenced by Gustave Courbet, Art Spiegelman, Gerhard Richter, George Herriman, and - lately - Philip Guston. His recent work reflects an interest in representational scene painting alongside cartoon story telling. He is creating original comics characters for his paintings. The work is meant to exist as both traditional easel painting and as a form of comics. Craft considers himself a painter working mostly in watercolor and in oil. His work is generally representational in appearance but considers himself to be a conceptualist. He explores a variety of themes such as peoples past, natural history, evolution, and the day to day struggles we all contend with. He claims he often feels as though he's telling a story in his work and - in fact - there is often a written narrative in each work to be found. He has been in numerous group exhibits and solo shows across the country. In June 2015 I exhibited 3 paintings in a juried exhibit at Artspace 111 in Ft. Worth, TX and was awarded the Top Choice prize by juror, Vernon Fisher. In the fall of 2019, he received a 3 week residency at MASS MoCA. He was also recently featured in New American Painting’s #138 covering the Western United States.

Catch and Release
Located in Bozeman, MT
In 1993, a window of opportunity opened as a result of several different situations that were occurring. I was participating in an Artist-in-Residence program in Yellowstone National Park. At the same time, I had recently been asked to show my artwork in nearby Livingston, Montana. All of these events resulted in a major lifestyle change. My love of the outdoors and of fly-fishing drew me to make the transition. So here I am. I live in a small town nestled in the Rocky Mountains where life is the opposite of what it was in Los Angeles. - Joe Fay
