Painter, born in St John's, Newfoundland, Canada. He arrived in Boston (1861) and was apprenticed to a show-card painter when young, and later he studied at the Académie Julien, Paris (18915) and returned to Boston where he set up an art studio (1897). As his reputation grew he made sporadic trips to Europe and became a member of the Eight (1908), though his water colours and oils did not reflect the harsh realism of some of the other members of the group. He experimented with style, but his work always had an impressionistic vitality, as in Central Park (1900). He lived above the studio of William Glackens in New York (191424).
