At sixteen he was a student of Lowell Collins and Robert Preusser, at the Museum School, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. He received a degree in architecture from Rice Institute and in 1954 won the William Ward Watkin Traveling Fellowship, enabling him to travel extensively throughout Europe. He also studied painting at the Institute Allende in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico in 1961, and at the Glassell School, Houston in 1984. In the 1970’s Sprohge was design partner with Converse, Sprohge & Cox, Architects, after which he specialized in architectural illustration.

As a watercolorist, Sprohge’s works reflect actual or remembered scenes that, while realistically rendered, portray the spirit behind the reality.
