| Kincaid was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in 1966, but he has lived and worked in Dallas for the last several years. "I always knew that I wanted to be an artist," he says, "although my original interests were in drawing and painting. It was only in high school that I began to develop an interest in photography and printmaking." He pursued these mediums in college, earning his BFA from Texas Tech University and an MFA from the University of Kentucky. |
| Kincaid's work is a favorite among collectors and he urges people to fall in love with the work they intend to buy. "Collecting with financial interests in mind is not really collecting," he explains, "it's investing. You should look for works by artists with whom you feel you share an aesthetic, work that haunts you, that you can't stop thinking about." Of course, learning a bit about the artist doesn't hurt either. "Find out what drives the creation of the work," he says."Chances are, you'll love it even more." |

| Dallas Artist - Ted Kincaid by Amy Durham |
| Kincaid's work explores the truthfulness of a photographic image and blurs Kincaid's work explores the truthfulness of a photographic image and blurs can seem aesthetically diverse," he says, "but the constant thread that holds it together involves using the camera as a tool to construct a plausible photographic reality that never existed." |
| Kincaid has exhibited extensively throughout his career, but he is rooted in the how the Dallas contemporary art scene has emerged with such force in the past few years," he says. "We have incredible galleries here that are sharp, dedicated, and accessible, institutions such as the Dallas Museum of Art (DMA) and the Nasher Sculpture Center, and citizens dedicated to supporting and nurturing the scene." |
| Locally he is represented by Marty Walker Gallery, and his work is included in such permanent collections as the DMA, the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, and the Museum of Fine Arts in San Antonio, plus several corporate collections, including Neiman Marcus, Belo, and American Airlines. |
