Artist, American, born 1954

The image shows a dirt path between two wooden structures resembling supports or remnants of a bridge. Diagonal supports create lines and angles. The horizon is unclear due to a gentle rise, but the distant terrain is visible. The composition is monochromatic with a sepia tone. The ground is rough with loose soil and scattered stones, and dry grasses line the path. Shrubs and vegetation are visible in the distance. The sky is lightly overcast with soft clouds.
