Born in Aberdeen, Scotland, Gordon Coutts is best known for desert landscape painting, especially of California. He began his art studies in Glasgow and continued in London and in Paris at the Julian Academy under Jules Lefebvre. He married artist Alice Gray, whom he met in Paris, and they spent several years in Melbourne, Australia. He was also an instructor at the Art Society of New South Wales in Sydney. In 1899, he exhibited at the Royal Academy in London. In the early 1900s, he and Alice moved to the San Francisco area, and he became an active member and exhibitor of the Bohemian Club.
An itinerant traveler, Coutts went to many remote areas including Africa, and Alice divorced him in 1918 when he was on a safari. He painted throughout the Southwest including Canyon de Chelly. In 1925, because of having tuberculosis, he moved to Palm Springs, California, and built a French Moroccan style castle like ones he had seen in Tangiers.
He died of heart failure in 1937, and his house in Palm Springs still exists there as a small hotel called Korakia.
