Ripps’ work has been tethered to a variety of American artistic movements, most notably neo-expressionism and ornamentalism. This is, in part, the result of Ripps’ continuous incantation of nature in his work. In a 1979 review in ArtForum, art critic Donald B. Kuspit attempted to term Ripps’ work as a “Cosmetic Transcendentalism”. This terminology defined Ripps’ work as a self- conscious form of transcendentalism that, through vibrancy of colors, scale, and textural variety, embrace “[…] its own cosmetic character, and which is an expression of a theatrical ambition” of the contemporary artistic landscape. Ripps’ paintings are often supplemented with artificial leaves made of linen, often bound together and worked over heavily with thick layers of oil paint.
