I do not go out of my way to clean up the items; I leave that up to you.  I do no accept returns unless something is grossly misrepresented, so please view all pictures and ask questions.  I will work with you to obtain a mutually agreeable resolution should something like that occur.I ship worldwide and combine shipping as well.  I will ship the same day if you pay for your item before 3:00 PM CDT.  Positive feedback will be given the same day in return.  I certainly appreciate your business and keep me in mind for future treasures.  All delicate items will be bubblewrapped and insured for your protection.  If you have any questions, please contact me.

Ken Zylla's beginnings in art go back over
forty years to a time and place where wildlife and nature provided the
foundation for his career. As a native Minnesotan, he enjoyed unlimited access
to the lakes, woods and rivers...an opportunity to become acquainted with nature
that would eventually merge with his interest in art.
Self taught Ken"s success has been built on
experimenting with color and technique. The unique style of Ken"s painting has
earned him the distinction of being one of the few artists who are recognized by
their work.
Throughout his career, Ken has
distinguished himself for creating a dimension in his compositions that truly
bring his paintings to life. As you study his work, it is easy to appreciate the
story-telling ability that describes the detail of an event or place that you
may have experienced yourself. With bold color and attention to detail, Ken
creates a dialogue with the everyday pieces 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 painting to a precise place in
time.
Ken has had numerous successful shows. His
work is displayed in several corporate and private collections throughout the
United States and several foreign countries.
An artist's artist, Ken has shared his
skills and techniques as a lecturer and teacher with students and fellow
artists. As an active member of several conservation organizations, Ken lends
support to their fund-raising efforts by publishing "Conservation Edition
Prints" that are distributed throughout Minnesota and eleven other
states.
