Although mainly self-taught, gordon has taken courses at the ottawa school of art, and was highly influenced by one of canada’s foremost artists, québec’s jean-rené richard (1895–1982). his book the colours of canada gives our canadian landscapes a strong voice – it tells the journey of an artist who everyday pursues his long-time passion for our canadian landscapes with his paint brush on hand and a dream that over time came true.

He has gained an international reputation producing impressive collections of canadian landscapes from his travels across canada. his work is a combination of great power and softness. often referred to as the eighth member of the group of seven, his figurative landscapes on the edge of abstraction, are a contemporary vision of what would have become the group of seven paintings.
