Janet Rickus (American b. 1949) Oil on Board "Squashes", a dramatic table top still life of eight squashes, signed lower right "Janet Rickus", in molded ebonized wood frame.

Rickus's still lifes are painted actual size, at eye level, and are often arranged on a surface covered with crisply ironed or softly draped table linens. Whether she's painting pears or squash, turnips or peppers, she precisely captures the color, shape, texture and shadow of her subjects. She is meticulous and unhurried, selecting just the right specimens, arranging them just so, and painting them with great concentration and precision.
