a large, almost square painting sits within a simple white frame behind glass. The canvas has been primed grayish white, but the's simple squares of frame and canvas contain a turbulent explosion of abstraction. It turns out from the center of the canvass, extending beyond its edges and threatening to engulf the gallery in frenzied, scribbled crayon. This overall effect is created with the dense and roughly circular mass of dark, swirling lines, layers of crayon, pencil and paint. They call to the imagination the hand of the artist firmly pressing pencil and crayon to the canvas, laying down long, continuous trails of looping and zigzagging lines. The base coat of white paint is visible throughout the canvas, but the lines are densest in the center and slightly to the right of center, and become sparser towards the canvases edges.
