COMPOSITIONS OF LIFE
By Matt Mortimer
Many artists will shy away from portraiture. If the symmetry and, attention to detail aren’t enough, there’s also the making a likeness that is accurate to the subject. Not only does Auckland-based artist Judith Milner embrace this challenge – she excels – to the point of being commissioned to do just that.
Judith explains one such time, that was a little more special than most; “In 2020 I was commissioned to paint portraits showcasing nine of the driving forces behind the Women’s Fund for their granting round event. It was an honour to be able to paint these amazing women doing such important work in the charitable sector and to have my work displayed at the venue.”
