With urban landscapes, cartoon elements, and superheroes as frequent subjects, Wray is noted for a tightly cropped and abstract painting style.[2][3] The Huffington Post said he "has a brisk, bold style that gives his city scenes a jolt of painterly drama."[2] Southwest Art Magazine called him "a chronicler of the fading urban remains of a bygone era."[3]
