About Me

My photo
Mike Kennedy
I am an oil painter with an avid interest in painting outdoors - also known as plein air painting. I paint studio work and still lives too. I grew up in Maine and moved to New Hampshire in 1994. I currently reside in Merrimack, NH. I have always been interested in art but didn't start painting seriously until about 1999. I'm hoping to share my journey with you through my art and the stories that helped shape my life. My goal is to add beauty to the world with my paintings as seen through my eyes and hope that others see it too. Thank you for joining me.
