He was referred to as "insightful satirist" with a sharp journalistic-moralistic program. His painting has always aroused strong emotions. Presenting people with grotesquely deformed bodies and use of symbols, he exposed the human flaws - stupidity, intolerance, hypocrisy, arrogance, laziness, blind fascination with money and American culture.
