At the turn of the century, Francis William Vreeland worked as a decorative painter at the Rockwood Pottery Company in Cincinnati, USA, while also training at the academy in the same city. After this he moved to Paris and later to New York for further studies at painting academies. From the 1920s, Vreeland worked in Hollywood, California. In this state he held many positions in the art world. Vreeland was especially famous as a watercolourist. He mainly painted landscapes, coastal scenes and (genre) representations with figures in an impressionistic style.
