Keegan Wenkman - 20 Years On: New Drawings

20 Years On: New Drawings by Keegan Wenkman

Originally from California and now residing in Wisconsin, 38 year old Keegan Wenkman is a unique artist for Outsiders and Others to be showing because we focus on works by self taught artists, and Keegan went to art school.

Wenkman was a young punk that hadn't gone to art school yet when Outsiders and Others started working with him. His drawings were in the moment, immediate, and full of heart. His loosehand and sparse choices with colour, because he is colour blind, helped create his style of slightly messy and perfectly composed works. 

Now, 20 years on, after formal education, his work really hasn't changed much. It's interesting how time and education hasn't had much influence on his illustration works. 

Wenkman is also an accomplished oil painter and traditional printmaker.

This exhibition will feature over 100 original pen and ink illustrations, all created in the last year during Covid.
