Ken Hill - Guernsey & UK Artist & translator

Some of Ken's artwork

Ken Hill trained as a portrait artist at the Royal AcademyHe was the first Guernsey man and probably the first from the Channel Isles  to train there.  His tutors  included some well known artists such as Peter Greenham.   He divided his time between painting and translating Guernsey French.  He translated many humerous stories by Marjorie Ozanne, which were published, and he translated the epic poem by Denys Corbet, 'Les Chants du Drain Rimeaux', which is to be published.

Ken was an artist who employed impressionistic techniques and mastered a wide range of genres. Look out for his mystery paintings where he cleverly hides images and discover enchanted worlds and true life stories within them.  Please send us your comments about his art and let us know if you have one of his paintings.
