He was one of the few painters to work, apparently by his own choice, in both major styles. He painted black-figure amphorae and pelikai resembling the work of the Leagros Group. His hydria and kalpidai with continuous profile where already in the tradition of the new style. His black-figure work is considered better than his red-figure. The Eucharides Painter was his pupil; according to some theories they were actually identical.
