About Conor Knight

Conor approaches traditional genres of painting in a contemporary manner as an autodidactic artist. He primarily works "alla prima", a painting technique in which wet paint is applied to previously administered layers of wet paint. This energetic way of painting gives his work an immediacy that imbues his subject with life and movement.
He has been a finalist in the Stanthorpe Art Prize (2026), Naked and Nude Art Prize (2025), Brisbane Portrait Prize (2023, 2024), Lethbridge small scale Art Award (2025,2024,2023,2021) and the National Emerging Art Prize (2021).
