His work showcases similar progress to the western cinema: in the '50s/'60s, it was clean and heroic, but in the '70s/'80s it became dusty and full of characters with miserable lives. The photograms of "Stagecoach", "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon", "True Grit", or "Unforgiven" were in his mind as he drew his illustrations adapting to the current cinematographic style, but still retaining his own personal drawing style. He used as artistic references great American classics like Harold Von Schmidt, Frank McCarthy or Frederic Remington, who drew articles in American magazines like Saturday Evening Post, which he read.
