Focused, passionate, prolific and determined – words
that convey the spirit of Ken Daggett’s life as an
artist. After years of embellishing architectural
renderings that limited his artistic ability, he is now
free to paint without bounds. The years spent in this
structured environment have given Ken a special
appreciation for personal expression in his art. Some of
his favorite subjects are the pastoral scenes of
Northern New Mexico, quaint village churches and hand
built adobes tenderly perched on the mesas and in the
valleys.
Ken is now a full-fledged Taoseno thriving on waking up
each day to the beauty of New Mexico. His mornings and
evenings are spent painting watercolor plein air. In the
afternoon he continues his are in the studio. His
paintings glow with the color and drama of sun-flooded
scenes and shady mountain meadows. One feels the heart
of the artist as well as the spirit of place in his
works.
Throughout his childhood and adolescence Ken explored
his world through art. He received art awards through
high school and continued his studies at Orange Coast
College. He devoured the majority of the art curriculum
and continued to be awarded for this talent.
Today he is at home with acrylic and oil; however, his
real passion is transparent watercolor. “I love the
unpredictable nature of watercolor and the challenge it
presents,” state Ken. His adoration of the Southwest,
the lush green fields of the lowlands, the softly
rounded adobe structures and the mountain landscapes
pour forth from his brush.
“For me, painting is a never-ending challenge and I will
spend my life gratefully pursuing that challenge. I
learn and grow with each new painting.”
