Chris Knight

Chris Knight’s artistic journey began at age five, drawing superheroes in his father’s ledger, which ignited a lifelong passion for visual storytelling. With an MFA in painting from the University of Wisconsin—Madison, Chris explores how narratives shape our identities through rich, story-like imagery and evocative characters.

His work, recognized with the WK Rose Fellowship and a Joan Mitchell Foundation grant, combines elements of romance, adventure, and loss. Chris teaches drawing and painting at Portland Community College, continuing to explore narrative and memory.
