He developed a recognizable style using blocky, sharp-edged figures on angular, geometric settings.
His work is slso recognized for its darkly detailed, sometimes shadowy figures inspired by horror films, haunting western landscapes, and loopy cartoon characters.
Poster historian Nels Jacobson wrote about Juke, "More than any other Austin poster artist, his work exhibits a strikingly broad cross-section of styles - from realistic portraits to Merrie Melodies takeoffs, from old-style ersatz woodcuts to New Wave minimalism."
His talent earned him recognition as one of the artists collectively known as the 'Armadillo Art Squad', a group centered around the Armadillo World Headquarters music scene.
He created concert posters using his unique graphic design for many performers including Joe Ely, B-52s, Willie Nelson, Frank Zappa, Talking Heads, Pavarotti, Asleep at the Wheel, and Roy Buchanan.
Juke's posters from the AWHQ era have become sought after collector's items, as are the silkscreened posters he created for The Austin Chronicle Music Awards and Austin's Carnaval.
In 2002, the Chronicle chose his Escher-esque self-meditation work for their 21st anniversary's cover.
Video game maker Richard Garriott sought out Armadillo artists and Juke was one of those who responded, helping infuse funky alternative Austin into Garriott's high tech games.
The South Austin Popular Culture Center hosted a solo exhibition of Juke's art in 2005, May 21 - June 11.
The exhibit drew heavily from the Armadillo World Headquarters era, when Juke's artistic career became popular.
The retrospective included posters for shows by Frank Zappa, Talking Heads, Rickie Lee Jones, as well as Texans Asleep at the Wheel and Townes Van Zandt.

In 2016 Juke's work was included in the "Homegrown: Austin Music Posters 1967 to 1982" exhibit, mounted by the Wittliff Collections at Texas State University in San Marcos.
The exhibit's posters provide a visual definition of Austin as it morphed from a late ’60s quiet college town into a counterculture center.
