McVicker (1911-2004) was born in Oklahoma and studied at Oklahoma State University, where from the 1950s through the 1970s he was a professor of fine art. During the 1930s/40s, McVickers worked in a representational style, and many of his subjects were drawn from Oklahoma landscapes and industry. However, by the mid-1950s he had shifted to a more abstract style and incorporated a brighter, more colorful palette in his work.
