Gerry Knight Description

Gerry started painting at a very early age and even as a young child her desire to be an artist was constant as she states herself “It is all I’ve ever wanted to do”. This culminated in her obtaining her degree in fine art where she studied under the likes of Jeff Makin, Anthony Proir and Jim Meldrrum.

Her subjects vary from bright still life and expressive landscapes to swirling full-bodied seascapes. Notably, all works show a love of movement and intense colour, “….Her works nourish and inspire the viewer with their warmth and powerful composition as she uses colour and line to feed the soul”, David O’Halloran Glen Eira City Gallery. As she states “I am profoundly moved by colour, often a whole subject of a painting can be based around a colour inspiration and I cannot get it on canvas quickly enough! I paint in a predominately expressive style focusing on the life force within the subject …more as I feel the subject rather than how I see it, often with a naïve bent of simple joy”

Gerry’s move to the Mornington Peninsula was a deliberate and inspiring one. After much hard work she was able to pursue her vocation at full speed, with the purchase of large studio space her beloved purpose built printmaking press and a spectacularly beautiful rural landscape and garden to provide her with ever changing subjects to paint and produce her unique linocut prints. Gerry’s unique linocut prints are created in the reduction method, used notably by Picasso. One block is used the lino block is cut away as every new colour is printed until there is no lino left. Each piece is done by hand by Gerry in the studio so consequently everyone is slightly unique being done by hand with great care. They are very limited editions, usually from only five to fifteen ever made. Often, these linocuts are inspired by Gerry’s garden where she spends much time amongst her flowers with her chickens and other pets in tow!

Gerry’s work has developed a large following locally and nationally and her work is held in private, government and international private collections.
