David Best Art

Situated in the heart of the Lake District, David Best paints from his studio at Low Wray, set in a stunning rural location.

Painting subjects include the landscape around the studio and that of the wider Lake District, animals (wildlife and pets), steam trains, boats, historic buildings, and not forgetting the local Herdwick sheep! Commission enquiries welcome.

The studio gallery shows an ever changing exhibition of recent work. Visitors to the studio are welcome by appointment as the opening times and days vary throughout the year.

Painting courses are also offered; please refer to the Workshop Courses section of this website.
