Spent some time working in Scotland and exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1905. Returned to Australia in 1912 and built a studio at Dee Why, next to a waterfall. He succeeded Lionel Lindsay as President of the Australian Painter-Etchers’ Society. His etching, The Paddle-Steamer (n.d., Baillieu Library, University of Melbourne) shows a rather rustic, home-made looking paddle-steamer, consisting of a hull with a tin shed on it, on the bend of a broad river overhung by large trees. (from Boats II: An exhibition , Leigh Scott Room, Baillieu Library, 8 August-29 October 1996, n.p.). This entry is a stub. You can help the DAAO by submitting a biography.
