Biography
painter, printmaker and illustrator, was born in England and came to Australia via New Zealand. Soon after arriving in Sydney he was commissioned to provide a bookplate for the wife of the Governor of NSW in appreciation of her opening an exhibition of bookplates at Tyrell’s Bookshop in 1923. Then he did one for the Australian Ex-Libris Society and others followed. He became noted for this work and his bookplates frequently appeared in Art in Australia in 1923-25. He was known for his rapidity of execution in both woodcut and etching. His own bookplate of 1927 has a ship and landscape flanking a cross with a Tudor rose at its centre (illustration in The Age of Ex Libris: Bookplates from the Library’s Collection , Baillieu Library catalogue, University of Melbourne, Vic., 6 February-30 April 1996, unpaginated). Terry Ingram noted in 1992 that Warner later 'began turning his hand more to the workers in the field than the more tranquil imagery of the outback, which may account for the decline in popularity suggested by the big markdowns in his work implemented by Anthony Hordern’s Fine Art Gallery in 1933.’ This entry is a stub.

Summary
Printmaker, was commissioned for various bookplates which frequently appeared in Art in Australia between 1923 and 1925. The popularity of Warner's prints seemed to decline when his works started to display greater consciousness of the workforce and less of 'tranquil' sceneries of the outback.
