The Golden Mean--ratio used by Diebenkorn

I'm revisiting Richard Diebenkorn (1922 - 1993) because I especially love his works of this period--the 1960's. Born in Portland, Oregon, he spent most of his life in California and looked to his environment for inspiration. He captures so beautifully the shimmering light and wide open spaces of mid-century California--the California of my memories.
