Awarded “Best Emerging Artist” by Art and Antiques
at the Carmel Festival
of Art in 2002, Ken Roth is a Central Oregon artist whose paintings
are filled with rich color and light on the landscape and figure.
Born in San Diego, California in 1966, Roth developed a love of the
outdoors and seeks to capture nature’s harmonies in his
paintings.
Ken studied under Spanish master Sebastian Capella, whose painting
theories have had a profound influence on Roth’s work. Capella’s
encouragement to simplify a painting and to seek the most
fundamental shape, value and color organization has strengthened
Ken’s approach to design. Roth has also studied with Russian
impressionist Ovanes Berberian and American painter Scott
Christensen.
Ken is currently working with Developers, Art Consultants and
Interior Designers to show case his work in such establishments as
Pronghorn’s newest Clubhouse, the Mercato Building in the Old Mill
District and the Caldera Springs Resort in Sunriver. Ken is
currently featured in the Guild Sourcebook of Architectural and Interior
Art and
in Art Business News, June 2009, as an Emerging
Artist.
Selected as an “Artist to Watch” in Southwest Art
in Jan. 2002
