He opened his own studio in 1934, and became one of Britain's favourite portrait and fashion artists, with his work widely used in quality magazines. In the 1950s his advertising work took him to exotic locations all over the world, and he settled in Tobago in 1963, regularly returning to Britain and the USA for exhibitions and awards. |
