 Red Hat, Inc -- original lobby design, NCSU Centennial Campus, Varsity Drive, Raleigh, NC |
"When
we first moved into our current office on NC State's Centennial Campus,
we were worried that the space didn't look like Red Hat. It was a nice
office, yet utilitarian and plain. Our lobby could have been the lobby
of any technology company. With the help of Kenbro though, we were able
to brand this entry space nicely. Kenbro created an inspiring mural above
the reception area and along the lobby walls. Now, when visitors come
through our doors, their first impression is a good one and they know
they are in Red Hat's headquarters." Michael Pittman -- Marketing Project Manager, Red Hat Curator, 1801 Varsity Drive, Raleigh, NC "We could have gone and bought some manufactured picture of our logo, but the idea of employing a local graphic artist to do this work is more appealing and personalized. I think having this gigantic blue-colored, vivid picture of our logo and our symbol can be a source of pride to our employees when they're coming to work." Steve Dawson -- Director of People and Organization Novo Nordisk, 3612 Powhatan Road, Clayton, NC |

We wished you worked slower so you could have stayed longer. You truly
were a blessing to us and we will always hold a special place in our hearts
for you. No words can express to you how much your work means to our family.
May God Bless you Kenbro because he blessed us by sending you. All our
love and thanks."
The Corbett Family -- TLC's "Broken Homes" Pilot Episode, Famingville, NY "The process of creating a mural with Kenbro is as much fun as getting the end result. Let your imagination soar. Limits are not limits, they are opportunities to expand, explore and create in a Kenbro mural. We have a unique work of art that will last a lifetime." Ross Haine -- Sweetwater Treehouse, Fairfax, VA |

| "You
should try to get an agent in New York who deals in Outsider Art ... Your bizarre genius shows through." Dr. Fukuchi -- Barton College, 400 Atlantic Christian College Drive, Wilson, NC "One of the most creative visionaries of our time. Kenbro's Assemblage Masterpiece "The Screen" was fabricated through madness & vision. A charitable contribution for the Wake County Habitat for Humanity. This artisan's work has set the tone for all others, truly ahead of its time. Cogs, turnkeys, mousetraps, figurines, xrays & everyday rhetoric balance this collaged rebar. A true representation of how an accomplished maestro sees his vision and delivers through "A Passage of Civilized Living" ... it has been an honor showcasing your work, customers are truly in awe and love the dimension." Steve -- Margaux's Restaurant, 8111 Creedmoor Road, Raleigh, NC |

 "Crop Circle" thanks Z-Spotlight 2005 |
"Featured this month is creative genius and Raleigh resident Kenbro. Kenbro's paintings and murals depict everyday scenes -- looking out from a kitchen window, from inside a taxicab or a parlor. But instead of similarly mundane landscapes outside, the windows show black-and-white scenes of a UFO or a photograph of the Earth from space. This clever conjunction of images immediately impresses audiences with sheer size and delicate craftsmanship. But
simply don a complimentary pair of 3D glasses, switch the natural lighting
for that of a blacklight, and Kenbro's works reveal another layer of
interest. Images that at first boasted little appeal, such as cushions
on a settee or the faucet on a kitchen sink, now pop in three dimensions.
The photographs of alien signs in a cornfield or spaceship attacks --
depicted in a grainy grayscale -- become twice as intriguing when illuminated
with florescent, blacklit hues." |
