His technique focused on a style characterised by bold and visible brushwork. He preferred to complete his subjects in a few sittings to maintain a sense of life. This method allowed him to avoid the static quality often found in official commissions. His portraits of figures such as John F. Kennedy and Paul Codman Cabot are defined by their clear structure. He used colour to define form rather than relying on heavy outlines.

His work appeals to those who appreciate the intersection of historical context and artistic expression. These portraits do not feel like relics of a distant past. Instead, the loose handling of paint gives them a freshness that fits well in modern interiors. Collectors find his portraits of the American mid-century elite to be both sophisticated and grounded. They represent a period when realism was being reshaped by a faster, more expressive way of seeing.
