One side has "Pan of Bolts" (style of Diebenkorn) and the other has a compelling abstract of a man walking on water and a swimmer in the bay, with a shark in the water theme. Joan Brown was a Bay Swimmer and this a abstract of Manuel Neri walking on water while Joan Brown swims amongst the sharks with blood in the water. An oil paint example of the artists signature is included for example; the painting is signed in marker on the side of the canvas "Wilt" "Pan of Bolts". Image, 53"H x 48" W x 2"D.
