He has worked on many restoration and repair projects of valuable antiques. In Germany, he was presented the keys to the city of Tiefenbach. Kieninger's works vary in size, shape, and medium, but his emphasis is in ecclesiastical art and in life size dimension. He has worked with various stone, marble, and metal, but prefers wood. His focus is on capturing the expressions and emotion of the human form. He has also worked with architects and interior designers to beautify homes in the Dallas and surrounding areas. A noted assembly of work, the Samuels' Hobbit Collection, painstakingly carved by Kieninger over a span of 14 years depicting the characters from J. R. R.
