Sigh…<\/em>so many rosy cheeks… I’m feeling a little flushed myself!<\/p>\n

This is the third time that I’ve written about Toronto based artist Kris Knight<\/a>. His work is just so<\/em> hauntingly beautiful that I literally cannot help myself. When I saw this body of work, titled Secrets Are Things We Grow<\/a>, I was blown away. His color choices are stunning, and his subjects are so, so<\/em> beautifully painted… and those delicate florals… gorgeous! Here is the description of this series:<\/p>\n

With \u201cSecrets Are The Things We Grow\u201d Canadian artist Kris Knight paints a cast of characters who consciously conceal aspects of themselves from those around them. They hide truths of who they are, where they come from and whom they love. They fear shame, rejection, gossip and embarrassment. They whisper stories but never want the story to be about them. Secrets have roots, they have currency, they accumulate and grow with time; some are short lived, while others haunt generations. Knight\u2019s character\u2019s front, they put on airs, and they pass; some bluff while others reveal their confessions without saying a word.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
