His work spans 50 years with a diverse range of materials. "His paintings present us with a strange and personal mythology. They envelope us in a unique fantasy world, where his figures move through timeless dream like spaces performing strange and deep erotic plays that have a surreal and shakespearean quality". "His paintings are mostly large, imposing and present the onlooker with a potent mix of mysticism and sexuality all embalmed in a vital and powerful painting style."
