Artist, American, 1922 - 1993

The image depicts a sketch of a seated person seen from the waist up. The person's body is turned slightly to the side, one arm rests on the armrest of a chair, and the other arm is in their lap. The facial features are basic outlines, with loosely sketched short, possibly curly hair. The person's clothing is vaguely represented with dark and light shades. The chair is suggested with bold lines for the armrests and back, and the background is plain.
