about the artist - kevin delaney
Hi i’m Kevin and I love to paint!
I am self taught and started when I was a 4 year old kiddo growing up in Rhode Island. I’d happily sit in the cellar drawing cartoons as i watched Gilligan's Island on the small black & white while chomping on Ritz crackers with Skippy and quaffing down purple koolaid....heaven!
I also enjoy other fun outlets including writing, poetry, piano, gardening, construction, triathalons, ice hockey, marathons & coaching.
I’ve had a great professional career in engineering & executive leadership & lived all over the world.
my wife & I now happily live by Disney in Florida.
My paintings reflect something personal...spreading goodwill and joyful inspiration.
I am drawn to a variety of styles and subjects with a surrealistic slant.
I prefer acrylic painting because of the speed of drying.
For years I have quietly painted in coffee shops, restaurants, sports bars and funky hotel lobbies....with no agenda except for the pure joy of creating.
It is fascinating to me that the only people that come up to me are little kids.
They look surprised at me as i have a paint brush in my hand instead of an Iphone.
They always say the same thing to me..."Mister, your art is really good and i love to paint too but I am no good at it".
I then stop painting, look at them in the eyes and smile and say "well i think you are terrific at it".
They then say.."but you've never seen my art". I respond by saying "don't ever worry about what others think of you.
Just love yourself and love your own creations.
You will be quite happy in life if you do and you'll be a famous artist someday".
