At age four, he immigrated to the US. He enrolled in the School of the National Academy of Design in 1897 and studied under William Meritt Chase. His interest in landscape painting led him to move to California and in 1910 he opened a studio on Point Loma in San Diego. He became an active member of the art community and founded the San Diego Academy of Art in 1912. He was a deeply philosophical painter for who nature was an expression of the divine.
