The inspiration for Ken Hunter’s oil paintings comes from his wonderful surroundings and from his experiences as a hunter, fisherman, and outdoorsman. It is his hope that others will find inspiration, excitement, and a better understanding of wildlife and its habitat.

Without doubt, most of his paintings have evolved from actual locations within minutes of his home in the Muncy Hills. His love of the outdoors sparked an early interest in painting. Most of his originals are done in oil but he has worked in acrylics, watercolor and pastels as well.

Prior to beginning his paintings, he does a great deal of preliminary work in pencil. Several years ago he also began to work in the bronze medium. After teaching school for 10 years, in 1981 he dedicated himself to a full time career in the field of outdoor communications. He also is a writer, photographer and lecturer.

“It is my hope that others will find inspiration, excitement, and a better understanding of our wildlife and its habitat,” he said. “Without doubt, most of my paintings have evolved from actual locations within minutes of my home in the Muncy Hills. My love of the outdoors sparked my early interest in painting, and while I continue to paint I have added several other forms of outdoor expressions as the weekly outdoor columnist for Webb Weekly and the co-host of Channel 16’s “Pennsylvania Outdoor Life.”
