He was in and out of a number of State reform institutions until he was 17.

He was then sent to work on a number of cattle stations in the Northern Territory and Queensland.

Reggie had been interested in painting as a child and then as a young man he lived with a women from Hermannsburg. Her father and her brother were landscape artists in the style of Albert Namatjirra who was one of the most famous early aboriginal artists.

He used to sit with them in their artist camp and started paint landscapes He used to paint them and throw them away until people started telling him they were good enough to sell.

From Landscapes he progressed to Dot Paintings using traditional Aboriginal Symbols and a dotted background using acrylic on canvas.

Reggie was living in Alice Springs and felt that all the artists were doing the same thing producing dot paintings and he wanted to try something different and he worked on developing his leaf and speckled background paintings, which is now his signature style
