This website shows the diverse range of work by Stephen Raw, a textural artist whose artwork is concerned with ‘language made visible’. Use the catalogue to see some of his recent paintings. Pieces such as his work for St Ann’s Hospice are commissions while others such as ‘Book of Remembrance’ and ‘Sarcophagus/Altar’ are personal.

Stephen’s work ranges from commercial lettering for publishers and designers under his company name Letterforms, through to lettering in all sorts of media for a wide-ranging list of clients. In his experimental work which he has exhibited widely, Stephen explores the gestural abstraction of the imagery of letterforms themselves. Recognising this is a growing band of collectors who have been buying his work.
