Although Pearson began as an abstract painter, today most of his works portray individuals and groups in transient venues, such as bars, diners, or hotels. Patterns remain an important feature of all his compositions, which may include words, architectural features, and other images or symbols. In an interview with the artist we learn of Pearson's admiration for artists of the 1920s and 1930s, particularly those associated with German Expressionism. Along with paintings and drawings, Pearson produces videos, which share a painterly quality in their production style visual appearance and thematic concerns.
