On Sale: Craig Knott.

by Marcus

We have brand new art on Sale at the Exchange.

Craig’s work is incredibly vibrant colourful and abstract. His pieces are based on personal memories and emotions expressed through paint.  Revelling in a freedom of thought and exploration of colour, in a both playful and chaotic manner.

“My works are arts great adventure. Original and valued pieces influenced by my life. Colourfully passionate in feeling

They capture time’s variety in various forms. They are personal and emotional moments whereby I express life’s creativeness.
I have always had such enjoyment from painting and it feels like I am giving a piece of my mind through a canvass and painting brush. The canvas being anything that one could place a brush too. A journey though life’s gifts expressive and fulfilments, feeling the need to create.”
