About Conor Kean

I always had a love for the fine details in creativity, but Art was never something I could see a career in, Growing up in Islington, North London, Art had no place in my life, or in my future. I wasn’t surrounded by it, nor had anyone in my life done it.. I became a product of my environment and drifted away from my love for all things I truly had a passion in.

From a young age I found myself always drawing and painting the things around me and it was never to illustrate things, it was to take me away from reality,  I didn’t realise this when I was young but I see that now. 

It was never in my head to become an Artist and start selling my work because it was never done for anyone else’s pleasure, this was for me, something I had created and could look at on my own and be proud of doing. I never even thought to show anyone else, nor did I want to.

It wasn’t until late 2016 that when I could only put it as i was in a transitional period of my life. By fate, in sunny Spain thousands of miles from where I was brought up, I was put in the path of an Art dealer who saw something I had never thought about, he see he’s own story behind a drawing that I had done.

I never realised that this whole time that was what I was doing, I was story telling. It was this same Art dealer that asked if I had ever painted , I told him I hadn’t but I would be keen to try, from that point the story began and I had seen for the first time a future in Art.

I love all mediums but over time I felt It was only a natural progression to go into Digital Art, with all of it’s new authenticity.
