His talents there were soon recognised and he sold paintings almost as fast as he painted them. He made return trips to Ireland, painting in Mayo, Clare, and along the River Shannon. In 1865 he sent five landscapes to the RHA and was an occasional contributor afterwards. He also exhibited in London with the Society of Artists, the Grosvenor Gallery, the New Watercolour Society, and the RA. He died in 1893 after falling from a cliff outside of Liverpool. His work was included in the Guildhall Exhibition of Irish Art in London in 1904, and may now be seen in the Walker Gallery, Liverpool, and the Victoria and Albert Museum, London more
