How can "Jerry is famous for his paintings." be transformed using "fame"?

The transformation using "fame" effectively conveys the idea that Jerry's recognition or notoriety originates from his paintings. The phrase "Jerry has gained fame for his paintings" indicates not only that he is renowned but also implies that his status as a famous artist is directly tied to his work in painting. This aligns closely with the original statement regarding his fame being specifically linked to his paintings.

The other options do not convey the same clarity or direct relationship between Jerry's fame and his paintings. For example, stating that "Jerry has fame from his paintings" does not imply a sense of having actively gained that fame; it simply presents a more passive construction. Similarly, "Jerry is known for his fame in paintings" suggests that he is recognized for being famous rather than for the quality of his artwork. Lastly, "Jerry's fame comes from paintings" could suggest a broader context where "paintings" may refer to a general category rather than emphasizing his unique contributions, thus losing the essence of personal achievement highlighted in the correct transformation.
