Gillian Buckley
Gillian Buckley is a contemporary New Zealand artist. Largely self taught, Gillian has been exhibiting since 2012 and her work is held in private collections throughout New Zealand and internationally. Her beautiful graphite portrayals are both refined and timeless, with exquisite time-consuming detail.
Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.
