With a professional career spanning 20 years, Australian artist Michael Knight has proved genuine creativity and hard work can still compete in a changeable contemporary art market.
Michael’s passion 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 eleventh solo exhibition opened in Perth in 2017.
