MILTON KNIGHT

Milton Knight says he started drawing, painting and creating his own attempts at comic books and animation at age two. “I’ve never formed a barrier between fine art and cartooning,” explains Milton. “Growing up, I treasured Chinese watercolors, Breughel, Charlie Brown and Terrytoons equally.” His work has appeared in Heavy Metal, High Times, National Lampoon and Nickelodeon Magazine, and he has illustrated record covers, posters, candy packaging and T-shirts, and occasionally exhibited his paintings. Labor on Ninja Turtles comics allowed him to get up a grubstake to move to the West Coast in 1991, where he became an animator and director on Felix the Cat cartoons. Milton’s comics titles include Midnite the Rebel Skunk and Slug and Ginger, and he has just finished a second Zora Neale Hurston adaptation, “Poker!”, which will appear in The Graphic Canon, from Seven Stories Press. More comics and illustrations by Milton Knight can be found at www.miltonknight.net. He currently exhibits and teaches at The Colonnade Art Gallery and Studio in Pasadena, CA.
