A single botanical stem with pairs of teardrop-shaped leaves arranges itself along a thin curved line, rendered entirely in solid black silhouette against a warm cream background. The composition achieves a quiet modernist balance, with leaves graduating subtly in size from bottom to top, creating rhythm through repetition and restraint. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
