J. Jay McVickerMcVicker, a painter, printmaker, and sculptor was born in Vici, Oklahoma and studied art at Oklahoma State University. He also taught at the university and was chairman of the art department. His works have been shown at the National Academy of Design, the Downtown Gallery in New York City, Paris, Rome, and the American-Japanese Print Exhibition in Tokyo. McVicker is known for his realistic aquatints portraying life in the Southwest, the style, somewhat reminiscent of classic film noir, whereby he creates a world that peeks out of wedges of light and pools of black. Some of these images are, "Arc Welder," "Oklahoma Twilight," "Cotton Gin," "September Symphony," and "Moonlight and Mystery."
