Artist, American, 1928 - 2007

The image shows a series of straight lines radiating from two points on the left and bottom edges of the canvas. One set of lines is red and the other is blue, creating an abstract fan-like arrangement. Handwritten text fills the spaces between the lines. The lines intersect across the canvas, forming angular, segmented sections with a geometric complexity reminiscent of architectural blueprints or technical diagrams.
