Carley Knight Art

Carley Knight is an emerging artist who works in a wide range of media, from painting with acrylics to metals and fibers. She lives and works in Milwaukee, WI where she was born and raised. Carley has been interested in art for as long as she can remember. When she was a child the answer to the question of what she wanted to be when she grew up was always an artist. Carley attended the UWM Peck School of the Arts starting in 2011, but left early and is mostly self-taught in painting. She was selected to participate in the 2015 -16 MARN mentors program and was paired with the renowned folk artist Della Wells. The mentor/mentee exhibition took place at the VAR Gallery in Milwaukee in 2016. Ms. Knight has been in a number of exhibitions. Carley first exhibited her paintings during Bay View Gallery night at the Magnet factory in 2016. She has participated in numerous shows, most recently in 2021 in the C for Conversation show at the MARN gallery in Milwaukee, WI. She has sold her art in a variety of locations in and around the Milwaukee area. She has recently been featured on the “HaveGoals” podcast. Ms. Knight is always looking for new opportunities to show her work.
