His main medium was watercolour painting but he also produced woodcuts.

The fonds covers the date range 1930 to 2000.
It consists of 2.3 meters of textual records, 211 photographs, and other graphic media (drawings, prints, watercolours, etc).
He studied art with Arthur Lismer and Gordon Webber at the Art Gallery of Toronto (1933-1937), and with Carl Schaefer and Elizabeth Wyn Wood at the Central Technical School, Toronto (1938-1942).
Bobak joined the Canadian Army in 1942, following high school.
