Juliet Best

This painting is float framed in a black satin timber frame

Juliet Best is a contemporary New Zealand painter based in Wellington.

Best creates textured, large scale works that exude an atmospheric sense of New Zealand’s coastlines and landscapes. Frequently featuring areas of hand-gilded gold leaf, Best’s works invite a glimmering immersion into rugged mountains that rise from seas in hues of blues and greens, umbers, and purples; the vibrancy of the landscape is expressed in a surreal palette under dream-like skies.
