The main tools that he uses to create his art are a jigsaw, a saw, sandpaper, and sometimes a hatchet. He creates free-handed, without using patterns. His art is usually whimsical in character. His nickname came from a dream in which he was told by someone, "You are Bebo". From then on he has kept the name as his folk-artist nickname.
