A well-known West Country artist who paints
landscapes, particularly marine, in watercolours,
pastels, mixed media and oils. He was born
in Exeter in 1948 and studied at Exeter
College of Art. He has shown in many group
and open exhibitions including the Royal
Institute of Painters in Watercolour, Royal
West of England Academy and South West Academy
of Fine and Applied Arts.
Ray is a strong advocate of
painting en plein air and his
main objective is to capture
the mood and 'spirit' of a place.
Living as he does on the coast,
it is little wonder that the
wide-open spaces of sea, estuary
and sky have been the main spring
of his art. Ray also teaches
painting and for the past two
decades has run painting holidays
throughout the UK and abroad.
He is also a regular contributor
to 'The Artist' magazine and
author of six art books.
He is an Academician in the
South West Academy of Fine and
Applied Arts and is also a member
of the St Ives Society of Artists. |
