Stylized salmon swim in overlapping layers across a deep charcoal ground, their bodies rendered in warm oranges, reds, teals, and olive greens with bold white teeth and graphic gill marks. The composition radiates a folk-art energy, with patterned scales and dynamic angles creating a sense of movement and abundance against the dusky backdrop. 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.
