Artist, American, born 1940

Lines and shapes converge towards a vanishing point, forming an abstract representation of a road receding into the distance. The composition features a series of horizontal and vertical elements resembling the sides of a roadway, bordered by geometric lines that mimic a fence or guardrail on either side. There is a solitary, stylized figure at the bottom center, and a sign with the number "30".
