NOW SHOWING ARTIST

John Knell

John, a Kansas City based internationally acclaimed and exhibited pop culture and sports artist, brings a unique and refined vision to the intersection of art, sports, culture, and community. Known for his dynamic, multifaceted approach, John seamlessly blends illustration, digital artistry, and abstract painting into visually stunning, creatively distinct works. With a career rooted in both creativity and community service, John thrives at the confluence of human connection and artistic innovation, drawing inspiration from the mixed media mastery of Robert Rauschenberg and the bold sports expressionism of LeRoy Neiman. His art fuses kinetic energy, vibrant colors, dynamic textures, and intricate patterns, creating compositions that pulse with life, passion, and visual impact. “When I’m at my best, I want my audience to participate in the creative process with me,” John says. “If I can introduce something that sparks a deeper change—whether through a fresh idea, a new approach to my craft, or a moment of inspiring beauty—then I’ve done my job.”
