The Acceptable Edge of the Unacceptable is a textured abstract characterized by a dense, intricate web of lines and strokes against a dark, reddish-brown background. The central area features a layered mass of light-colored lines, primarily off-white and blue, creating a vibrant focal point. The use of thick acrylic paint gives the work a three-dimensional quality and, although it brings to mind the calligraphic abstractions of Mark Tobey, it stands apart due to its unique textural elements.
