Description:
The Glencoe Mansion, Museum & Gallery presents The Art Work of Sam Linkous Opening Reception on Thursday, May 8, 2025.

Residing in Blacksburg, Virginia, Sam is a multitalented and versatile musician and fine artist. He creates whimsical and unconventional pieces of art using inks and colors, one at a time, and never reproduced.

Sam Linkous' inspiration for his current series of art, consisting of watercolor and ink paintings, came in 2020 to have something colorful and positive to post on his social media page in a world when everything seemed to be negative. He received an overwhelming amount of positive reactions, and now with over a thousand followers, he continues his daily posts now five years later.

Sam’s current work revolves around flowers that grow in his imagination, but he often incorporates items such as musical instruments, old cars and trucks, churches, and barns, or whatever else comes to mind, all of which represent his imagination and love of color.

In addition to his painting, Sam also lists as his hobbies: photography, creative writing, and playing Old Time traditional music in the area, and while attending many of the Old Fiddlers Conventions in Virginia, North Carolina, and West Virginia, some of which he works as a competition judge or emcee.

Admission is free and all are welcome.

The show will be on display until Sunday, June 29th.

Glencoe Mansion is free to visit and is open Wednesday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM and Sunday from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM.

Glencoe Mansion, Museum & Gallery is located at 600 Unruh Drive in Radford, VA.
