Here we find one of her formal still lifes. Although a lot of her more famous works include a very busy composition of many objects grouped tightly, I found this one most pleasing in its simplicity. What looks as pieces from a dollhouse, Groover composes a dynamic scene where muted tones are complimented by the use of color. Both leading lines and the use of shallow depth of field guide the viewer’s eye through the image.
