About the Item
Amaryllis II original watercolor in vibrant red and green from Cleveland-born and educated Gary Bukovnik who has lived in San Francisco for over 40 years. Bukovnik’s art conveys a monumental quality.

In 2003 and 2005, the American Academy in Rome invited Bukovnik to
attend the academy as a Visiting Artist and provided him with a room and studio for six weeks. In 2001, he was selected to create a poster for the prestigious List Collection, which creates posters to commemorate programs at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York.
