Artist, American, born 1937

The image shows a large, circular line enclosing a square in the center, set against a lavender background. The abstract composition suggests connections to familiar objects like a ring around a box or a spherical object around a square frame. The simplicity and symmetry of the shapes offer an understated and intriguing visual experience.
