Raymond Ramsay – Artist

I was born and educated in Auckland and I’m a Graduate of the Elam School of Art where I studied under the tuition of many of New Zealand’s famed early artists: A.J.C Fisher, John Weeks, Lois White, and Ida Eise.

My paintings are often colourful, influenced by the beautiful palette that surrounds us here in New Zealand. I enjoy interpreting a varied range of subjects and employ varying degrees of abstraction in my work to tell my intended story. I’m inspired by what makes us uniquely New Zealand and I strive to capture the essence of the life and landscape we enjoy here in Aotearoa.

My work has been collected around the world and features in private collections in England, Ireland, Canada, the United States of America, Japan and Australia. If you would like to get in touch please do so via the form at the bottom of this page.
