Ken Zylla's beginnings in art go back decades to a time and place where wildlife and nature provided the foundation for his successful painting career. As a native mid-westerner, he enjoyed unlimited access to the lakes, woods, rivers and small towns surrounding him, developing a sincere appreciation for the nostalgic "simpler life." A self-taught artist, Ken's popularity is credited to how relatable his paintings are to the viewer and how each work of art tells a story. With bold color and attention to detail, Ken creates a dialog with the everyday fabric of our lives. His blending of the elements, such as weather, sunlight, time of day, the seasons, along with his choice of subjects, bring each piece to a precise place in time.
