Executed with the freshness of contemporary plein air technique, the seascape charms the imagination. The artist’s formal approach is instinctive, as he applies swaths of color using a wide brush or palette knife - to create harmonious tonalities and limpid atmospheric effects.

Ken Knight is an Australian landscape painter in the plein air tradition. He travels the continent in search of plateaus, forests and oceans to paint in all seasons and phases of daylight. Knight’s style can be described as Impressionistic, yet his interpretation of color and light is uncannily real and sometimes more sensuous than the nature he seeks to recreate. Knight’s landscapes are truly a “feast for the eyes.”
