Artist Biography

Raymond Knaub

"Harmony, light, space and reverence for the land are the adjectives I would use to describe my interest in painting. My works are based on actual landscapes, but I feel no obligation to render them exactly as an illustrator would do. My art has evolved over the years to reflect a deeper internal interpretation." - Raymond Knaub on his art, prints and posters

During high school in Nebraska, Raymond Knaub received no formal artistic training. While majoring in math and engineering at Baylor University, he happened to take a drawing class. Within a year he began to see the world with new eyes. He transferred to the University of Nebraska, majored in fine arts and graduated with a bachelor's degree. After graduate school at the University of Colorado in Boulder, there came a point when he looked around the art world and wondered, among all of the styles and media he had explored in school, where his own artistic direction might lead him. He has always considered Edward Hopper and Andrew Wyeth among his earliest influences and like them, he has always been attracted to traditional themes in his art, prints and posters.

Raymond Knaub's work has appeared in Southwest Art, Colorado Homes and Lifestyles, Western Art Digest, Art Talk, Art of the West, and Who's Who in American Art. His art, prints and posters are highly prized by museums and corporate collectors from all over the country and one of his paintings was recently featured at the United States Embassy in Moscow. Knaub has been featured in many one-man shows throughout the Southwest. In June of 1996, the Museum of Nebraska Art featured Ray in a show entitled "Rural Wanderings".
