From Askart.com: The following information was submitted in April of 2006 by Robert Savage, a private collector of his work: Kenneth Leon Gore (1911-1990) was born in Illinois. He studied at the Meinzinger Art School in Detroit. He was an important member of the Rockport and Gloucester art colony in Massachusetts, as well as the Brown County art colony in Indiana. He moved to Gloucester in the 1950's, and ultimately became the President of the prestigious North Shore Art Association there. He was a teacher and participated in many art workshops in the Cape Ann area. He was also a member of the Rockport Art Association. He was best known for his shore and landscape scenes done in the Cape Ann area. His unique technique often involved a heavy impasto with the paint applied with a palette knife, giving his paintings almost a three dimensional quality. He died in 1990.
