Artist, American, 1922 - 1993

The image shows an artistic representation of a seated person from the side. The upper body is emphasized, with the legs extending towards the bottom right. The person has a sketchy and abstract face with dark shading for the eyes and a closed mouth. The hair is depicted abstractly with sweeping strokes. The figure appears to lean slightly back while seated on an indeterminate surface. The clothing is suggested by bold, dark brush strokes. No jewelry or objects are visible. The background is simple with an off-white color and subtle texture. A red circular stamp is in the lower right corner.
