With the prints, the essence of his work had clear ‘painterly’ attributes. After art school, he more and more frequently explored oil, acrylic and watercolour painting as the media that suited his sensual approach to the figure and landscape, and the transfiguration of one into the other.

He received his BFA at the University of Manitoba in 1955. He lived and worked in Mexico and then for several years in Europe, returned to Canada in 1964. From 1970-79, he was with the Fine Arts Department at UBC, as Assistant Professor and Chairman of the BFA Program.
