Continuing at the University of Wisconsin, he worked under the guidance of Hubert Dalwood, who offered him a teaching position at Hornsey College of Art and Design in London after he graduated with an MFA in 1968.

His early sculptures of abstract forms are of a minimalist aesthetic. Later, he transitioned to figurative forms after re-training himself in traditional sculpture methods. His recent body of work explores current themes in mainstream pop culture, along with the scientific ideas and innovations that shape society.
