Kevin
Powell, now better known as 'Kip' was born in Wiltshire in
1955. He spent much of his youth travelling the world in a
variety of occupations.
His artwork has been seen in local and national publications
since the late 1970's. He has been an in-house cartoonist
for several companies and has illustrated many books.
Fifteen years ago he started displaying his unique prints
and he found that he had quite a following. People who had
bought his work twenty years before recognised him through
his very original style and humour.
Kip's greetings cards and prints can be found in galleries
and art shops throughout the country.
He
was asked by a friend to draw a cartoon portrait and these
soon became very popular and now take up much of his time
because of the high demand.
He is married with two teenage children and currently lives in Combe Martin, Devon.
