[1] He began drawing when he returned from Germany after serving in the Second World War.
[1] Terry Frost, a painter from the St. Ives school encouraged him to become a sculptor.
His works combined shiny curved surfaces with contrasting black welded comb of rods that held them together, a conflict of geometric and organic forms.
He refused to allow one style to dominate his sculptures, even though this often alienated him from those who had supported his earlier works.
He has taught at the Bath Academy in Corsham,[1] and as the head of painting at Winchester, a visiting lecturer at Newcastle, and a Professor of Fine Art at Leicester Polytechnic.
