Ken Horn was born in Scotland, studied art in Sweden, and at Croydon Art College in England before coming to Canada in 1975 where he spent a year studying art conservation in Ontario.

Initially working in black and white Celtic designs, he has since spent a season or two working in clay but from about 1997 to the present finds him concentrating mainly on the use of acrylics.

His style is everchanging and he has finally come to terms with that.

"The poems which accompany my pictures have become a way for me to better understand my work, a way perhaps for others to step further into the images but in the end of course your poem would be as relevant as mine."
