P. Neilson, W. H. Bull, M. Sandona, and Blendon Campbell in forming the California Society of Artists as a protest to the conservative attitudes of the San Francisco Art Assosciation.

During the 1920s Del Mué was a staff artist for the San Francisco Chronicle and later worked for Foster & Kleiser (billboards).  His commercial art includes many prominent logos which are still in use (Hills Brothers Coffee, Schilling
