He first won notice for his paintings in the 1960s as part of the New Realist school.  His compositions focus on single objects.  In the 1960s and '70s these were often commercial products from grocery and department stores such as foodstuffs, clothing and shoes wrapped in plastic or otherwise packaged for sale.  Later his subject matter included things from the natural world, trees, flowers, fruits and animals, painted realistically but isolated against an empty background and often juxtaposed with other, unrelated objects.

The artist's work can be found in public collections throughout the world including the Albany Institute of History & Art, New York; Art Gallery of Ontario, Delaware Art Museum, Hedendaagse Kunst, Utrecht, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City, Minneapolis Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, New York City, National Museum of Art, Canberra, Australia, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art, Walker Art Center, Minneapolis and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York City.
