Red Gorge
1964

An abstract painting with a palette dominated by shades of red and brown, featuring dynamic, sweeping lines and forms that suggest a rugged, possibly canyon-like landscape. The composition is rich in texture and has a sense of depth, with lighter areas that could be interpreted as highlights or reflections.
