Verbal Description: This is an abstract drawing on white paper. Two rectangles vertically aligned create a white frame around the parameters. Each rectangle contains a mirrored geometric shape that when put together resembles a kimono. The shapes are dark gray, and inside are black, thin, straight lines. The lines are unevenly spaced and descend from the opposite upper corners, creating four “V’s”. Drawing down from the bottom “V” are four vertical lines that go to the bottom of the shapes.
