by
renowned
Australian
artist,
Kevin
Best
captures
the
essence
of
the
Australian
bush.

print

hand
signed
and
numbered
by
the
artist.

is
a

only

and

As
a
child
Kevin
Best
loved
to
draw.
After
leaving
school
he
worked
on
the
stock
exchange
for
25
years.
In
1972
he
began
to
paint,
and
at
the
age
of
45
and
with
encouragement
from
his
wife
and
six
children
he
turned
professional.
With
no
outside
training
Best's
natural
talent
has
taken
the
form
of
'feeling'
on
canvas. The
atmosphere
created
by
mist,
rays
of
light,
reflections
and
drifts
of
dust
has
made
Best
one
of
the
most
popular
artists
of
the
Australian
landscape.
Although
he
admires
artists
such
as
Hans
Heysen,
Elioth
Gruner
and
greats
of
the
Heidelberg
School,
Kevin's
inspiration
has
come
from
the
landscape
itself.
Best
held
his
first
solo
exhibition
of
50
paintings
in
1974.
He
has
since
held
over
30
exhibitions,
and
is
represented
in
private
and
corporate
collections
in
UK,
USA,
Japan,
France,
Italy,
New
Zealand,
Canada
and
Australia. |
