Ray Taylor

Ray Taylor is an Abstract Expressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Ray Taylor painted small, thoughtful watercolors in the 1940s. In Allegorical Composition from 1943, muted colors and layered shapes suggest a quiet story without spelling it out. His work sits between folk art and the kind of image you might find in a magazine spread from the same decade.
