BiographyThomas Mcknight is a prominent figure in the fine art world. His paintings, limited edition Thomas McKnight is a prominent figure in the fine art world. His paintings, limited edition serigraphs and aquatints have a vast audience in the United States, Europe and Japan.

Thomas McKnight grew up in suburbs of Montreal, New York City and Washington, D.C. After receiving his Bachelor's Degree from Wesleyan University, he studied art history at Columbia University. He then served in Korea with the army for two years, and later worked for Time Magazine.

Since deciding to devote himself to painting full time in 1972, McKnight’s work has been exhibited in over two hundred and fifty one man shows through out the United States, Europe and Japan, and has appeared everywhere from the cover of Reader’s Digest to pages of Japanese calendars to the walls of restaurants in southern China.

His prints have appeared in numerous movies and television shows including Beverly Hills 90210 and When Harry Met Sally. At a recent Cannes Film Festival, actor director Robert Redford remarked that McKnight was his favorite artist.

McKnight's private, public, corporate and museum collections are too numerous to list here. In 1988, McKnight’s Constitution was chosen as the official image of the U.S. Constitution Bicentennial. In fact, Constitution was one of only three art works which First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton chose to bring to Washington from Little Rock when President Clinton was elected. The serigraph hangs in the White House solarium which serves as the first family's living room. Longtime McKnight fans, the Clintons asked the artist to create an image for the presidential Christmas card in 1994 and again in 1995. His warm home and hearth renderings of the White House Red Room and Blue Room at holiday time have now appeared on half a million cards sent out worldwide from the White House.

Six books of McKnight’s art have been published (two in Japan) including the most recent Voyage to Paradise. He was commissioned by Dennis Connor in 1992 to paint two images commemorating the America's Cup races, and by the city of Kobe, Japan in 1993 to create a series of paintings to serve as the centerpiece for the two year celebration of its tricentennial. After the devastating earthquake which hit Kobe in 1995, McKnight created an earthquake relief poster.

McKnight forms visions of paradise ranging from the Greek Isles to Long Island shores, from New England hills to Venetian holidays. In recent works, he gives us a legendary world filled with gods, nymphs and satyrs and hints at the rebirth of classical ideals. McKnight is the only well known artist working in this genre.

One critic writes: McKnight s images work on many different levels: they are beautiful to look at, instill a sense of inner harmony and speak to us in the language of dreams, showing us a parallel world full of magic and enchantment". McKnight s paintings capture the fascination of masked balls and romances, the human yearning to return to Eden.
