J. Jay McVicker

1911-2004

J. Jay McVicker was an American printmaker and painter, born in Vici, Oklahoma. He was an impressive aquatint artist, using the printmaking medium to produce landscapes and industrial scenes of Oklahoma in the 1940s and early 50s. He began introducing color into his prints in the late stages of that period. As trends began to shift from representational and regional styles to abstract expressionism in the 50s, he too changed with it.
