Influences

His influences range from American potters Peter Voulkos & Paul Soldner and painters such as Franz Kline, Robert Motherwell & Roger Hilton. His paintings and prints evolved from the process of applying decoration to his pots, initially inspiring him to create small prints, and then expanding on to large canvases.

Praise

An American art collector commented on receiving one of Gordon's teabowls: "I could wax poetic and say that it is a vision of art being born and rising from the inchoate earth, or I could just shut my mouth and be in awe of the magnificent piece..."
