“Since I can remember, I always enjoyed taking things apart and rebuilding them. But at a young age, I found myself not remembering how to reassemble exactly the way it came apart. It became challenging and fascinating for me to create a new way to put things back together. I became obsessed with trying to make things different or even improved, well at least in my own mind.”
--Kenneth Peloke
Kenneth Peloke is the youngest of four children. He wasn't a good student, but was attracted to art and went into Graphic Design after college. After a few years, he quit art altogether for seven years. With his first child on the way, Peloke was suddenly inspired to create again. He began painting abstract pieces, which he explained were inspired from non-subjective forms in his mind and raw energy.
Oddly, Peloke is colorblind, and although this used to present a challenge for him as an artist, he has learned to control his color palette to limit his frustration. Over the past several years, he has found inspiration by spending time with his wife’s horses. His bold, large-scale pieces capture the pure essence of the horse while still challenging his artistic talents. His multimedia approach creates depth and incredible realism to his pieces that give them a one of a kind contemporary appeal.
