Artist profile

Artist profile

With a professional career spanning nearly 20 years, Australian artist Michael Knight has proved genuine creativity and hard work can still compete in a changeable contemporary art market.

Knight’s passions for drawing and composition, and unusually bold sense of colour, produce evocative works with long lasting appeal. His paintings feature in collections throughout Australia and his eighth solo exhibition opened in Melbourne and Sydney in 2010.
