Artist, American, born 1941

There is an abstract form consisting of a dark blue rectangle and a pink triangle on an off-white background. The shapes combine to create a downward-pointing arrow or simplified bird beak. The design is minimalist with limited color, emphasizing the geometric forms. The rough, textured edge at the top suggests a torn page from a spiral-bound notebook.
