He wrote and illustrated several volumes as well as providing pictures for other authors. His first commission was from Methuen for 'The New Forest' (1904), and work on subsequent books led to him travelling extensively in England, Italy, North Africa, the Middle East and Japan, painting landscapes, street scenes and architecture.
