His artistic aptitude became evident from a very young age. So, in 1918 he enrolled in the Night School of the Arts in Corfu, where he attended drawing courses for two years. In 1937, after a brief stint as a tradesman, he enrolled in the Athens School of Fine Arts, where he studied sculpting under Thomas Thomopoulos, Kostas Dimitriadis and Michalis Tombros until 1939. 
His personal artistic path began with representational works, including busts and full-body statues, mostly nude. After World War II, and particularly after 1950, he gradually turned to more abstract forms, still within the framework of anthropocentrism, to finally end up in abstraction. His environments with “Stairs”, first presented in 1978, originally in wood and later in brass, as well as individual compositions with stairs in various sizes, signify ascent and exertion and indicate the way out through knowledge. In 1985, his 10-meter-high stairs made of steel were placed in Paleo Faliro.
