Judith Milner
Judith Milner is a painter living and working in Auckland. Previously a lawyer before turning to a career in art, Judith describes her paintings as a fusion of her analytical and intuitive sides.
Representational in her works, Judith approaches nostalgic New Zealand scenes in a fresh and intimate way. She is drawn strongly to imagery that not only reminds her of her childhood, but also hints to a broader narrative beyond the frame. New Zealand architecture is a frequent muse of Judith’s; using traditional techniques, the details and proportions are rendered with precision, giving appreciation to their historical craftsmanship. While this classes her work as realist, it is really the place’s feeling that Judith seeks to capture.
The 2021 recipient of the Michael Evans Figurative Award and 2023 People’s Choice Award at the Walker & Hall Art Awards, Judith’s work is currently part of collections in Aotearoa and beyond. Judith’s originals can be found at Turua Gallery and The Artist’s Room (Dunedin).
