He was a self-taught artist; he travelled to various countries in Europe, in America and in the Middle East where he used to pain both landscapes and people of that places. During World War I, he was an officer in Galicia and at the front of Isonzo. In 1924 he started joining the Viennese Secessione and he became famous not only in Austria bu also internationally. In 1939, he became a member of the Künstlerhaus; in his last years he was an established artist and he dedicated himself to smaller works, etchings and watercolors.
