In particular, he was also inspired by the art, prints and posters of the Newlyn School, the French impressionists, Degas, Renoir and Toulouse Lautrec. Raymond was born in Great Yarmouth in 1949 and still lives in East Anglia. From 1965 1970 he studied fine art and graphics at Great Yarmouth College of Art. Originally he made his living in graphic design, but demand for his original art grew so he eventually made the decision to take up painting full time.

Raymond is a member of the Royal Society of Marine Artists the Guild of Norwich Painters...
