“I work on paper or canvas, drawing with oil crayons, then doing a wash over the drawing. While making a mark, I don’t always question why; which leaves me to make most marks without thinking. The reason I produce art is to have a dialogue with myself. I want to question using a language that is only known to my subconcious. A dialogue using people and places, shapes, color, light and dark. It’s kind of like writing letters...” – Doug Kinney |

LANDSCAPES These are medium to large paperworks painted with a very rigorous wet-on-wet technique. In these three examples we see that Doug has a total mastery of his medium and can truly let the paint work its own magic. You get a large dose of visual stimuli and emotional range from each painting, all of this is gracefully directed and given purpose in his refreshing and surreal environments. |
