From 1952 to 1957 he went on to study at the art academy in Munich visiting classes and works with Emil Pretorius and Helmut Jürgens in graphics, sculpture and stage design, both becoming very influential in his future works.

From 1962 to 1963 he worked at the Hessisches Staatstheater Wiesbaden and from 1963 to 1966 at the Theater Münster. In Münster he was responsible for designing the stages for numerous opera, operetta and drama productions.

In 1967 he started his career as a freelance artist in Schapdetten near Münster.
