I'm Matthew Knight I paint the monsters that live in my head. Hope you enjoy.
Matthew Knight was born in Cambridge (England), raised in Lahore (Pakistan) from 4 years old until he was 13, suffered growing pains as a teenager in Belfast (Northern Ireland) throughout his 20s he kept traveling all over Europe and has now ended up back in sunny Belfast. Travelling so much has left him feeling more settled when somewhere foreign.
His characters and scenes are bursting with crazy colours and complicated detail drawing influences from all sorts of artistic disciplines, Islamic, Celtic, Aboriginal, Pointillism, Lowbrow, Comics, etc...
He works mostly in Acrylic with collage on all sorts of found surfaces. Matthew is an up and coming artist to watch out for. He has a degree in Fine Applied Arts and has exhibited in Belfast, London, Amsterdam and Dublin.
