In 1972 McKnight left Time, summered on the Greek island of Mykonos, and commenced painting in earnest. In 1979 in Mykonos, McKnight met Renate, a vacationing Austrian student, and married the following year.
Throughout the 1980's McKnight's art, mainly limited edition serigraph prints, became increasingly popular.
