One painting of a female sitter with short black hair. She is seated with one hand resting on her lap facing inwards so that her elbow is bent. She is wearing a white dress with a black belt and bracelet. The background consists of abstracted, diagonal forms in orange, red, and white. Her face is depicted with hard-edged features so that the painting exudes expressionist overtones.
