Ken Howard

British 1932-2022 


Ken Howard was a popular British painter known for his prolific output of vivid oil and watercolour works. Notably, he was the president of the New English Art Club from 1998 to 2003.

Howard received formal training from the Hornsey School of Art, London, from 1949 to 1953 before joining the Royal Marines. He then returned to his studies at the Royal College of Art and went on to win a British Council Scholarship to Florence from 1958 to 1959. His first solo show was held at the Plymouth Art Centre in 1955, followed by another the following year at the John Whibley Gallery, London. Since then his work has been exhibited internationally in various shows, including two retrospectives. Howard was elected a member of the New English Art Club in 1962, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters in 1966, and the Royal Society of Painters in Watercolours in 1979.
