Artist, American, born 1930

The image showcases a collection of varied geometrical shapes and lines, including vertical green and black stripes on the left, colorful diamonds on the right, and sweeping curved shapes in the background. Recognizable elements like a family portrait and a photograph of a swirling galaxy are integrated into this abstract piece. The vibrant stripes and quilt-like diamond pattern may evoke fabric designs, while the cosmic image suggests a celestial expanse. The backdrop consists of soft blues and grays with a serene, sky-like quality.
