He was born at the family home, a grand Italianate Victorian mansion named "Carleton",[1] in Summer Hill, New South Wales. He attended his father's alma mater, Newington College (1916–1918),[3] and then completed his education at Sydney Church of England Grammar School, when his widowed mother, who had remarried, moved to the North Shore. As an art student he was tutored by Antonio Dattilo Rubbo at the Royal Art Society of New South Wales and at the East Sydney Technical College. Rubbo had also been his art master at Newington. While travelling he pursued his training at the Art Institute of Chicago, New York School of Fine and Applied Art and at the Taos summer school.[4]
