Visiting Artist Lecture with Jas Knight

Friday, January 29, 2021

3:00 PM-4:00 PM

The Art and Art History Department presents a lecture by artist Jas Knight.

Jas Knight is an observation-based painter and draftsman whose work combines the influence of traditional Western painting methods with subject matter taken from the world around him. Through a disciplined studio practice and savvy use of social media, Jas has formed a sustainable painting career that has circumvented traditional routes through contemporary art galleries. As a complement to his studio work Knight has embarked on a pedagogical project of authoring books on the art of copying paintings, color theory and is co-authoring a book on linear perspective.

Jas Knight lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.

This free, virtual event is open to the Drexel community.
