Kinarney is known for his exquisitely realistic paintings rendered in colored pencil, ink and watercolor. He is a master at capturing the character and personality of people, animals and objects of everyday life with surprising clarity. His work has won numerous awards.

Largely self taught, Kinarney was a successful graphic designer and illustrator for several area businesses including Antioch Publishing in Yellow Springs. He now enjoys teaching art at the Fairborn Art Association, the Rosewood Art Center In Kettering and the Vandalia Senior Center where he encourages students to explore their own unique styles.
