Sam McKinney was born 1951 in Lexington and spent his childhood in Fleming-Neon, KY after receiving an AB and MA in Art at Morehead State University, he has made Morehead his home. He resides with his family in a log house and connecting studio, (which he considers a functional sculpture) reconstructed of eighteenth and nineteenth century structures designed and built by himself. McKinney has been a figurative freelance painter and sculptor for over thirty years working mainly on commission, with portraiture being his mainstay. His work in oils, watercolors and bronze sculpture are nationally collected. This 1,800 pound sculpture in bronze and granite has been the focus of Mr. McKinney's energies for more than a year and is, he says, the culmination of everything he has learned about his art.
