I have a wonderful oil painting of a Winter’s scene, signed R Ayton, which I would like to know more about. Is there a way of contacting Rupert Ayton to see if he has any knowledge about it?
Hi Colin I’ll happily pass on your email to him if you’d like to get in touch with me via my website. In the meantime, I’d love to see your painting if that’s possible. I’ve seen so little of Ayton’s non-Ladybird work
Hi Helen,
Thank you. I’ll try to contact you and send a picture.
Kind regards,
Colin
Hello Helen, we have a painting signed Robert Ayton in the offices of my grandparents. It is of the Bristol Comberland Basin. There is also an unsigned charcoal cartoon Caricature we thought might have been done by Robert. Is there any way of contacting his nephew to see if he’d be interested in the painting.
Kind regards
Alie Fanson.
