Artist, American, 1922 - 1993

The image depicts a person in a reclined position. The person's body is curled up, with legs bent and one arm positioned behind the head. The facial features are loosely defined with sketch-like lines, and the person appears to have shoulder-length hair. They are depicted in warm hues of orange and yellow, blending into the background. The clothing is not distinct, merging with the rest of the composition in abstract strokes. Surrounding the person are bold blocks of color, including deep blue, red, yellow, and green. The background consists of bright, abstract geometric patterns.
