Upton's early work comprised of a series of performances and installations which he undertook in collaboration with fellow artist Peter Lloyd-Jones. However, as Upton grew older, he dedicated his efforts toward painting, utilising a pastel-heavy palette to capture both rural and urban landscapes. Upton was successful in his lifetime, receiving solo exhibitions in London and New York, whilst also having his work displayed as part of group exhibitions at prestigious venues such as London's Hayward Gallery and the National Museum in Madrid.
