A Kentucky original, Henry Faulkner was a painter, a poet, and a true Southern character. Born in Eastern Kentucky and orphaned as a toddler, Faulkner spent his early years in an orphanage and foster homes and grew up to travel the world and enjoy many different social circles. His colorful paintings depict a wide range of subject matter, from buildings, still lifes, florals, image collages, and animals…especially his beloved goat Alice.
