Artist Statement
“This painting really transformed as I painted. My focus was the amaryllis and then the objects on the table as support. I painted everything as I saw it, with some shifting of the fruit to find the right balance. As I lived with the work, I realized it needed something more.
Through frustration I decided to rework the background and table top. Once I let my imagination take over the painting felt like it came to life.”
—Jim McVicker
