Phil McKenney
Art & Performance
Phil McKenney is a full-time commercial artist and performer. His work is loose, spontaneous and sometimes gritty, yet it’s hard to fit his work into any known pigeonhole. Maybe this is due to his diverse art experience. He’s been a filmmaker, animator, editorial cartoonist, Virginia Commonwealth University art school grad at age 44, TV courtroom artist, magazine illustrator, advertising illustrator, sports painter, muralist, sign painter, and drawing teacher.
