Jonathan Knight Sculptures -Mare and Foal

Jonathan Knight is one of the leading equestrian and racehorse artists of his generation. He first established his reputation with the statue of Dawn Run at Cheltenham Racecourse, consolidated it with the much admired life size bronze of Music Boy at Cheveley Park Stud.

Whilst continuing to practice this side of his work, a life lived in the Sussex Countryside was the cause of a shift in focus towards the study of form and movement in both animals and birds.

In a quest to distil the essential spirit of an animal or bird, he strips away the distraction of detail and creates fluid, tactile images with warmth and soul. The characteristic life spark captured and held in bronze.

It is an approach that sets his work apart from the majority of 'wildlife art'.

Unsurprisingly, Jonathan's work features in private collections throughout the world - including that of HM The Queen - and he exhibits regularly in London, Sussex, Belgium and Holland.
