Artist, American, born 1937

The image features a long, curving line looping in arcs from the top to the bottom of the frame. The abstract design resembles a ribbon or wave, with the line crisscrossing in a seemingly random yet continuous motion. The soft, monochromatic palette enhances the abstract quality, allowing viewers to draw connections to flowing water or wind-blown fabric.
