Brandon Best is an abstract expressionist painter, born & raised in Barbados. Most of Brandon’s life he was convinced he was a drawer, as he saw painting to be very intimidating. It was in 2017 he by chance, discovered his love for oil pastels; 2 years later in November of 2019, he began to discover his painting style. Initially painting on wooden surfaces, his work tends to be inspired from his love for jazz, experimental hip-hop, people he’s seen or worked with from his life as a waiter. The subjects are often bizarre characters boldly taking shape in thick black lines, over colourful backgrounds. Each piece along with their story, guaranteed have a song that helped bring them to life.
