Lister's strength lies in figurative painting alongside visual art, using exceptional skills with oil and acrylic paints to bring to life the rawest and most unfiltered human emotions in his artwork. He tells the incomplete story of African men and women in society, emphasizing their unspoken words and capturing their emotions through artistry. Through his use of color and symbolism, Lister creates a powerful connection between the history of Africa and modern-day Africa, normalizing modern black luxury while highlighting the progress that has been made. Lister's style represents the sentiment of sisterhood and brotherhood shared between black women and men, and it is a special bond recognized not by blood but through understanding. It is a recognition of the tragedies endured by black individuals in a world that thrives off their oppression.
