Artist, American, born 1951

The image depicts a man seated and facing the camera directly. He is wearing a white cowboy hat contrasting with his dark, closely-cropped hair. The man has a calm expression with fine facial features, including well-aligned eyebrows and a mustache. He is wearing a long-sleeved shirt with broad vertical stripes in alternating light and dark colors, neatly buttoned up. Each sleeve of his shirt has a pair of gloves tucked in just above the elbow. His hands are resting casually, one over the other near his waist. The background is plain and dark.
