Experience

Kent Hansen is currently working as a Photographer/Artist-Illustrator and Meditation Instructor. His artwork is available for viewing and for purchase through "Flowers &More" in Prior Lake Minnesota and at "Eye of Horis" in Minneapolis. His artwork has also appeared at Minicon, MarsCon, Capricon, CONvergence, and Diversicon art shows and dealers’ rooms throughout the years and has acted for the third and final time, as some kind of a art show potentate for the Diversicon 12 art show through no fault of his own. He is currently working on his mnartists.org website and posting new works of art along with his poetry on a daily basis. He lives in Chaska, Minnesota.
"I intend to make the most of these pages and will continue to post new works daily until I run out of space. 8x10 giclee prints and the originals of all my works seen here are available for sale, so if you see something you would like, don’t be shy, let me know..."
