Kingston grew steadily and eventually became Jamaica’s capital in 1877, and The Shakespeare Tavern became highly successful. In 1860 Wray brought in Charles James Ward, the son of his brother, to run the business side of the company. Ward was a dynamic and gifted entrepreneur, and under his leadership J. Wray and Nephew began a period of growth and prosperity. Wray retired in 1862 and died in 1870 leaving Ward as the sole proprietor of the business.

United Kingdom
I am a London-born artist. The often regional themes in my works have in common the a fascination with the relationship between people, places and cultures. Heavily influenced by his life in South London, the paintings can be recognised by my vehement painterly technique and unusual pallet; natural materials mixed with thick textured paints, sand, oils and butters, overworked with charcoal, chalk, oil-bar and other mediums. With its emphasis on layer rich canvasses which provide a setting for paint and natural elements to come together, my paintings can be seen as a kind of urban abstract expressionism, deeply rooted in his responses towards growing up in a Jamaican family in London.
