Artist, American, born 1935

The image displays elongated oval shapes and horizontal lines creating depth and layering. The largest oval in the center resembles a grainy wood pattern, floating above a textured, wave-like pattern. Another oval above is dotted with speckles against a dark, striated backdrop. The arrangement suggests floating islands or layers of a mysterious landscape, contributing to an abstract interplay of textures and forms.
