Biography

Timeline

Born in London, he entered the Westminster School of Art 1937-8, and the Slade School 1938-40.
He settled in Cornwall in 1945, co-founded the Crypt Group and later the Penwith Society. His first one-man show was at the Redfern in 1947, and he taught at the Bath Academy 1951-6.
After 1956 he abandoned landscapes in favour of abstracts, using complex grids; in 1960 he began to make kinetic paintings he called IMOOS - Images Moving out onto Space, e.g. Mobile IMOOS No.,3, 1965. Later work had landscape references (e.g. Red and Black Streams, 1973).
