Artworks by Paul J Best

Paul is particularly drawn to painting landscapes and seascapes and abstracts inspired by nature. He exhibits and sells his paintings on line and at exhibitions and also through Hampshire based Art Galleries and Shops and now has paintings in collections across the UK and in America, France, Switzerland, Germany, Spain, Italy the Caribbean and Australia. 

Paul has qualified in Landscape Architecture, Urban Design and Fine Art (Painting) and is a Fellow of the Landscape Institute. His practice as a national award winning landscape architect greatly informs his paintings and vice versa.

He particularly likes to create textured paintings and often incorporates gels and pastes  and sometimes applies gold leaf. He mostly always incorporates reflective paints in the work to capture and reflect the light. He will usually combine the use of palette knife and soften this with brush work.

He is inspired by the enduring 'impressionist' masters: Klimt, Monet, Cezanne, Matisse, Sorolla and also the more contemporary landscape painters, notably Hitchens, Rae and Tress. 

All work is initialed on the front and signed on the back and is supplied with a signed certificate of authenticity. Most work will be corded and ready to hang. Paintings will be wrapped in bubble wrap and secured in strong cardboard packaging for delivery.

Royal Mail will be used for most deliveries within the UK and ' Parcels to Go' for international deliveries as these have proved to be reliable. If the country is not listed then please do contact Paul and he will determine the shipping cost. If import duties are due, then I am afraid that buyers are responsible for paying those import fees as these will vary from country to country. 

Paul is always very pleased to take commissions. If you have an idea in mind for a particular space then please make contact.  He would really appreciate any feedback on his work. If you see a painting that you love then please do feel free to make an offer or to message Paul for any further information. He loves to think that people enjoy having the paintings in their homes.
