Coleman was born in Ballarat in 1922,
dying in 1993. He was a painter and printmaker, studying at the Royal Melbourne

He exhibited at many group shows in Australia and overseas from 1945, and a
solo exhibition at the Hamer-Matthew Gallery, Sydney in 1989. He was awarded a
Diploma for the best ten in composition at the 28th Grand Prix

A major retrospective exhibition in
1986 at the Bendigo, Ballarat and Sale Art Galleries (Victoria, Australia)
