He was educated at the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art. His father, W. T. Brewster, was general manager of the Irish Independent, and Gordon joined the paper as a staff artist in 1906. He drew cartoons mainly on money matters for the daily paper, and had a regular cartoon called "This, That and the Other" for the Sunday Independent.

Gordon Brewster died at Howth on 16 June 1946, aged 56, from undisclosed causes. He is buried along side his parents in Kilbarrack Cemetery.
