Dustan Knight is a lifelong creative, MFA-trained at Pratt Institute and MA in Art History from Boston University. She brings decades of experience, intuition, and vitality to her process-driven pieces. Known for her vibrant, lyrical style and mastery of color, Dustan Knight creates work that feels alive—bold in both vision and technique.
For Guerilla Kindness, Dustan and Lili, founder of The People's Party USA, collaborated to create something radically meaningful incorporating movement, helping hands, air, water and florals.
“We wanted to create paintings that reflect the complexity of our world today and shine a light on fundamental acts of kindness, sincerity, and respect in the context of nature and earthly elements."
The chosen medium? Watercolor.
“It’s transparent. It moves fast. It requires presence and precision. Watercolor is the perfect metaphor for Guerilla Kindness and what Guerilla Kindness and The People's Party USA stand for.”
