1939 - 2016
Acrylics on canvas Born - Dundalk, Ireland Jim Kinch studied with renowned Belfast painter Hugh McCormack and attended the Dundalk Technical College. With a career in design and marketing, he emigrated to Australia in 1973 painting mostly in isolation and developing his strong and distinctive “Post Impressionist” style. His ability to capture action, movement and atmosphere enhances his favoured subjects of a range of sports through to bar room scenes. Jim has held myriad solo exhibitions across Australia since 1990 and exhibited almost annually back in Ireland too. He has amassed an impressive number of awards and continues to be much sought after for workshops with art groups, as well as being commissioned by many corporate clients in Australia and overseas. His down to earth approach, variety of subjects, and in particular his action paintings, has resulted in ever increasing popularity. |
