Gordon Rayner
(1935 - 2010)

Rayner grew up surrounded by art, as his father, grandfather and great-grandfather had all been artists. He learned a sense of discipline through constant painting and learning to master technical painting skills, before he began an experimental painting career. His artwork draws from both figurative and abstract sources of inspiration.
