Artist Marcus McKinley was born in upstate New York and raised in Portland, Oregon, Marcus developed

his skills and passion for art from an early age. With dual degrees from Oregon State University in Fine

reflection of who I am and what I have experienced”.

From my first painting that I sold to my elementary school Assistant Principal, a junior high painting that was displayed at the White House, to Germany, where, while enlisted, I became the first Black graphics illustrator in the Air Force, it was there. The paint and watermarks on this vessel are remnants of certified originals at Princeton University, with Former President Jimmy Carter, generations of art collectors, and more than 70 years of passion. My mom was, is, and forever will be my inspiration, sacrificing this coffee pot that has held my brushes since childhood. She gave me a key to what is my lifeblood. I don't just make art. I dream about it, I breathe it, I can't live without it! And now, I share it with you. May you enjoy my creations, disc
