Latife creates each work of art with palette knife only. This gives his paintings the rough, antique textures of old frescoes. The surface is tactile and details are diffuse and inferred rather than shown.

Latife's subject matter is almost exclusively women in active rather than passive postures. His compositions are ambiguous, suggesting both classical and contemporary elements.
