Guenther's work blends elements of painting and sculpture, often incorporating unconventional materials such as clothing, sunglasses, cigars, and papier-mâché.
Early in his career, Guenther's pieces were influenced by themes such as death metal, mythical creatures, and kitsch culture.
[2] In his more recent work, Guenther has explored abstract and surreal themes, often featuring recurring motifs such as the "Plate Face" character and marine animals like whales and dolphins.
These paintings have drawn comparisons to Abstract Expressionism and outsider art [3] due to their spontaneous and emotive qualities.
He has stated that working in black and white removes unintended cultural references and focuses the viewer's attention on the composition and subject matter.
