“...I am Raymond Murray...” I am a full time Scottish Artist born & bred in Greenock. Some people call me eccentric because I live & work alone... but the truth is I like my own space to work, and that's about it. “...I paint in oils, pure oils, using a unique technique...” I loved the spectrum of colour, blending and mixing paint. I now like black. Pure black oil. Maybe there is some deep dark reason, but as far as I am concerned at present it's the only colour that captures my passion on canvas. “...If a piece of work isn’t right, I destroy it...” Each work I produce is an entity... it has soul, a life and a story to tell. There are a variety of subjects in my paintings. Most are a fusion of my imagination and other influences. My work must right. How my work is received is important to me, I take a Stanley knife to any pictures which fail and obliterate them. “...I would like to thank those who have bought my work...” Over the years each piece of work sold has encouraged me and enabled me to progress and develop as an artist. So thank you to the individuals, corporate clients, Art Galleries and museums who have added my work to their collections. “...I am now exhibiting my unique works 'Black & Light I am currently producing large pieces in one colour...black. With stippled and smooth areas, the light which falls upon them brings them to life. I have several exhibitions planned and continue to discuss exhibitions with interested galleries. “...I am Raymond Murray...” Want to know more?
