About the Artist

Willie Kunkel,   Silver Spring, MD

My name is Willie Kunkel. I have been doing art my whole life but, until recently, I have been doing it alone in my bedroom with a glass of wine and Lana del Rey. Now, I have been trying to share my art more, applying to shows, showing at local businesses, and participating in plein air competitions. The social aspect of art has been really inspiring and reinvigorated my drive to improve and push myself.

I work in a variety of media, including ink, watercolor, charcoal, acrylic, and photography. I enjoy learning from others and trying new things, and I'm always trying to expand my horizons.
