In 1974 he moved to Melbourne, Australia where he exhibited with Profile Gallery and later with MCA (Melbourne Contemporary Art Gallery). Around 1988 he began painting trompe-l'œil murals in affiliation with a company called 'Fresco Site Specific Art'.

He moved to South Australia in 1991 and continued to paint trompe-l'œil murals until 2005 when, motivated by illness, he stopped taking commissions and returned to exhibiting fine art. Since 2010 he has been living in Tasmania.
