Raymond Walford was born in an artists home yet he didn't begin to consider art as a career until he was in his mid 30's. Ray was always good art and his father teaches art at Gisborne Intermediate. Last year he began to study at the Polytech where Sandy Adsett took an interest in Ray's work. Now 1½ yrs later Raymond Walford has his own exhibition at Fettuccine Brothers Restaurant in Peel Street.
