MEET THE ARTIST
Zac Kinkade
Zachary Thomas Kinkade, Thomas Kinkade’s nephew, was born in 1992 and has been passionate about art his entire life. Beginning when he was 11, Zachary began entering and winning national and regional art competitions and shows. Deciding that art was his calling, Zac submitted a portfolio to the Fort Worth Academy of Fine Art and was accepted to the school in preparation of formal university training the arts. During this time, Zac also attended Tarrant County College to study art and most significantly began apprenticing at the Thomas Kinkade Company to explore his own aesthetic vision. Zac continued these relationships while attending Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, where he eventually graduated with honors from that academy’s prestigious school of art and architecture.

TIMELESS HOME DECOR
When I travel, I make a habit of striking out from the beaten path to discover the small nooks and crannies of the American countryside. I am never disappointed when I do. During those times and on such adventures, I have happened upon the inspiration for many of my favorite paintings. Whether it is the gleeful mischief of otters swimming along the California coast or a cry of exasperation from a mother bear dealing with a den full of cubs, I have seen the like of these delightful scenarios as I ramble.
Mountain Mechanics is another example of such a happening, proving itself both a happily discovered experience and an eventually treasured reminiscence. Various critters gather and commune with each other in a shady spot. An abandoned truck serves as a curiosity for a band of mischievous raccoons. A toolbox sits nearby to help the gang of potential joy-riders ready their vehicle to hit the road.
Where this group of ne'er-do-wells might end up on their own road trip is beyond this tale to tell. But, I have to believe in my painter's heart that this "fix-it" crew will find their way into more mischief and trouble still. I hope you enjoy the boisterous fun of Mountain Mechanics and thank you for sharing my adventures in art.
