Physical Description: Drawing; dark, ink wash border surrounds lighter landscape composition drawn primarily in dark pencil with some black and some white wash. Primarily sky, with a low horizon line along the bottom; sky contains both vertical and horizontal marks and a round, white circle along the right edge of the border. There are 3 dark circular shapes in the center of the composition. Signature runs along right side of drawing, just outside of the border.
Description: Joseph Goldberg was born in1947 in Seattle and grew up on a farm outside Spokane, WA, where he graduated from East Valley High School. After attending the University of Washington, and early in his career, Goldberg created small works on paper, landscapes in which small shapes floated within larger planes. Somewhat surrealistic, these paintings leaned toward the abstraction that ultimately defined his early career. This untitled drawing is typical of this period.
