K E N   W A L L A C E Aqua Sanctum, Verdant Depth acrylic on canvas, 40"x60", $6,000.00

There is a surprising and beautiful balance between realism and abstraction in the acrylic  paintings of Ken Wallace. The artist has an ability to blur the boundaries of what we know and what we feel. This abstraction gives the viewer freedom for reflection and allows the viewer to experience Wallace’s paintings internally. On the other hand, his use of color and the tangible elements of his paintings connect us to the physical life of these scenes. We are faced with the reality that human experience is undeniably tied to our natural surroundings. Wallace’s work identifies the fact that we encounter nature not only with our senses, but with our souls as well. It is in his ability to depict this elegant dichotomy that Wallace’s work is so unique and successful.         S O L O   E X H I B I T I O N     K I R K L A N D   G A L L E R Y                      8 .14 .08 - 9 .8 .08                  CLICK ON   TO VIEW IMAGES
