Teresa Knight
Teresa Knight's recent work is full of atmosphere – she imbues what
she sees with the emotions the scenes evoke within her. The softness
of her style and the subtlety with which she uses colour help create
this almost mystical experience. The viewer enters a new and special
place outside of normal time where words are not necessary, but where
experience is shared.
Teresa has been an artist for many years, and had a love for animals
for as long. She got started in art when she and her sisters would
pass rainy days at the cottage by drawing and painting, and Teresa
continued in art.
She obtained her B.A. in Studio Arts and Bachelor of Education in Art
from the University of British Columbia and now paints and teaches
painting out of her Union Bay studio.
Teresa exhibits her work at local and West Coast venues. She hopes,
eventually, to use her paintings to raise money to improve the lives
of overlooked animals.
