Thomas McKnight Signed Serigraphs

Throughout the 1980s Thomas McKnight’s art became increasingly popular, and by the end of the decade he was at the top of his field: six books (including two in Japanese) had been devoted to his work,  and  hundreds  of silkscreen editions had been sold. His art was perhaps even more well-known in Japan, where he was commissioned to paint a series of views of Kobe for the city’s 1993 fair. In 1994 he was commissioned by the White House to paint the first of three images for President Clinton’s official Christmas card. In the middle of the nineties McKnight deepened his visions, and in the process began to paint larger and more built-up canvases. McKnight’s work is represented in the permanent collection of New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, as well as in the Smithsonian Institution. The Westport River Gallery has available several of his hand numbered, signed, limited edition serigraphs.
