Shipped to Tasmania for robbing a grocery shop, Strange established himself as a portrait painter in Launceston where he also painted a number of views of the town, many of which are now held in the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery, Launceston. After a time spent working as a colourist and retoucher of daguerreotypes for C.A.H. Williamson, Strange ironically turned to the grocery business.
