      • Okoli leta 1771 je odpotoval v Škotsko, da bi pod mentorstvom Cosma Alexandera pridobil izobrazbo, vendar se je po Alexanderjevi smrti leta 1775 vrnil.
      • Nadaljnji razvoj je sledil v Londonu med letoma 1775 in 1780, kjer je pod vodstvom Benjamin Westa, znamenitega ameriškega barvarke, živel v Angliji. Ta obdobje je bilo ključno za oblikovanje njegovega umetniškega sloga in pridobivanje priznanja znotraj Kraljeve akademije.
