He paints both in the studio and plein-air. The subjects of his work range from land and seascapes, surfing culture, old buildings and cars, gardens and the people who live in all these arenas. He has studied with some of the best modern plein-air painters (Ken Auster, John Comer, George Stickland and Ovanes Berberian). The plein air experience has enhanced his comprehension of color and light. He also likes to paint big paintings and often does oil paintings using old surfboards as a canvas.
