He began his career at the Downs School in 1928. He was a colleague and friend of W. H. Auden in the early 1930s. In 1937 he was an early supporter of the Euston Road School. He encouraged his pupils to paint with direct sincerity in the open air,
word - and are delighted to be showcasing his work once again in an exhibition that is long overdue. I only hope it rekindles interest in his remarkable legacy to British art, as he deserves.""
