Artist, American, born 1951

The image depicts a body of water, likely a pond or lake, seen from above. Vertical reeds emerge from the water alongside floating lily pads. The horizon is positioned high, separating a dense area of lily pads from a more open expanse with a lighter sky. In the distance, the water is darker, covered by clustered lily pads creating a textured contrast. The color palette is monochromatic with shades of black, gray, and white. The water's surface is smooth, reflecting the surroundings.
