He pursued his artistic education at the Großherzoglich-Sächsische Kunstschule in Weimar under Max Thedy, and later studied at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste München starting in 1906, where he was a student of Franz von Stuck from 1913. Following his studies, he worked as a freelance artist in Munich and was a member of the Münchner Künstlergemeinschaft.

His illustrations also appeared in magazines such as Simplicissimus and Jugend.
