After completing in 1917 his architectural studies in his native Wellington, New Zealand, he met the Dunedin painter A. H. O’Keefe and determined to be an artist. He was able to do this with the assistance of a private income. He traveled to China, Japan, Philippines and in 1919–1920 moved to Warrandyte, on the outskirts of Melbourne, Australia, where he began painting. He studied intermittently in London from 1929, with some attendance at the Slade School of Fine Art and traveled extensively through Europe and the Middle East until the beginning of World War II, when he returned to Australia and lived in Sydney.
