Heath inspired Frost to attend the Camberwell School of Art upon his return to England after capture. At Camberwell, Frost studied under paintersm Ben Nicholson and William Coldstream. His work took on the style of geometric abstraction, defined by bold patterns of shapes, such as overlapping half-circles, rectangles, and squares of bright colors.

His work is featured in collections of the Tate Gallery in London, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and the National Galleries of Scotland in Edinburgh.
