In 2022 his artwork was featured as part of Michael Lichter’s “Motorcycles As Art” show at Sturgis Buffalo Chip. His work can be found in private collections around the world. “I draw and paint my own experiences, distilling the event, or series of events, into a single image. While the literal aspect is an important part of it, I am equally concerned with the feeling the artwork generates. When you look at one of my prints or paintings, I want you to feel what I felt, to remember how you felt when you had a similar experience, or even to feel the anticipation of an event you have yet to encounter. For me, making art is about communication. I am speaking to the spirit, to freedom, to danger, and to the majesty of nature and the thrill of living.”
