Ken Brenner
Avidbank Head of Strategic Relationships an on Pacific Art League Advisory Council
Ken Brenner is a self-taught artist who began experimenting with acrylic and watercolor in the early 70's before starting a family and banking career became the priority. It wasn't until 2008 when Ken rediscovered his passion for art and was introduced to the medium of oil. In the past 12 years Ken has developed an expertise in abstract oil painting and has continued to experiment with color and composition. Throughout the entirety of his artistic career Ken has been exhibited in Berkeley, Palo Alto, San Francisco, and New York City.
"I enjoy abstract painting, where my imagination is expressed on canvas. The richness of oil paint combined with the magic of nature, enhances the lives of all who venture into the world of art." - Ken Brenner. View his work here.
