Artist, American, born 1951

The image shows a man from the waist up, standing in a relaxed position with his hands in his pockets. He has a serious expression on his face, with defined facial features and a full beard. His hair is styled in short, neat dreadlocks, and he is wearing a bandana tied around his head. He is dressed in a long-sleeved button-down shirt that appears slightly wrinkled, and the collar is folded down. The background is an expansive open field with tall grasses, and the sky appears overcast.
