Artist, American, born 1937

The image contains two elongated oval shapes outlined in white, intersecting within a semi-circular form divided into two different colored segments. One half is deep purple, while the other is a warm mustard yellow. The design may vaguely resemble a stylized butterfly or two leaves side by side, emphasizing an abstract representation. The simplicity of the design invites contemplation of familiar forms through minimalistic abstraction.
