In 1936 he graduated with distinction. From 1934 he was drawn to the Curonian Spit regularly . Numerous paintings, watercolors and drawings were created in Nidden , Purwin , Preil and Perwelk : landscapes at different times of the day and seasons, dunes with cloud moods, boats and fishing boats. On the spit he also met his wife Maria, who came from Memel .
After his release from Soviet captivity in 1948, he lived and worked again in Dresden. There he also created several large figurative sgraffiti .
