Ray Richardson - Signing Day

Ray and his wife Carolyn stopped off in the Toon this morning while on their way up north to Scotland on their holidays. Breaking a journey up is always a good call, even better when you can mix in signing a Baker's Dozen of editions and have a pub lunch. View all of Ray's new lithographs on our website.
