Artist, American, born 1968

The image features a V-shaped formation at the top center, with layered, gradient colors forming a sharp point extending downwards. The abstract composition includes shades of black, brown, orange, and hints of pastel tones. The overall effect is reminiscent of a rainbow or light spectrum converging to a tip, against an off-white background.
