Artist, American, born 1935

The image shows four heart shapes evenly arranged in each corner, surrounded by fine speckles. The speckles create a gradient effect around the hearts, resembling a soft spray of pastel hues. The dispersion of color can remind one of festive confetti or a splatter-paint canvas. The hearts provide a recognizable form amidst the abstract backdrop, grounding the image in a motif associated with affection and love.
