King painted genre scenes, landscapes, portraits and still life. His early modernist portraits and genre were often compared to Diego Rivera. King was a modernist, and a Renaissance man of the art world, whose styles included Realism, Impressionism, and Abstract Expressionism at various periods in his 40 years of artistic activity.
