Artist, American, born 1943

The image displays vertical lines of varying lengths intersected by circular and irregular shapes. The design resembles a cross-section of weathered tree bark or erosion patterns on a rocky surface. The varying densities and tones of the lines and shapes create a textured appearance reminiscent of a natural landscape.
