DescriptionThe image depicts the dark silhouette of a male figure kneeling on a checkerboard floor or cushion with his back to the viewer; it is difficult to discern whether the figure is looking at an outside view or playing on a window seat or ledge. The figure's right arm is raised with his hand holding an object. The work is created using bold blocks of color. Along the upper right edge it reads "Bryant 9-6410 Hotel..." In the lower left there is an emblem of "BEAR Surf Boards". In the lower right corner it reads "How can it be, luck if I aim? You'll be glad..."On View
