Ken Ward is a Manitoba-born visual artist, author, and arts educator. While living in Halifax for the past twenty-five years, he has been writing, teaching and making art. He holds two degrees from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, a Bachelor of Fine Arts 1981 and a Masters in Art Education 1992. His paintings, drawings, and mixed-media work have been exhibited in both private and public galleries across Canada, and can be found in many private collections.

His more recent work is noteworthy for its exploration of alternative usage of media.
