Artist, American, born 1954

The image shows a narrow, rocky path between high cliff walls. The perspective is from the ground looking up, with the path curving out of sight. The cliffs rise steeply on each side with trees hanging over, casting shadows. The horizon is not visible due to the cliffs and trees. The rocks and fallen leaves on the path show detailed tones of grey. Branches and leaves are silhouetted against a pale sky at the end of the path. The color palette is grayscale.
