Intertwined serpents and lizards coil across a cream ground in this naturalistic study inspired by 18th-century scientific illustration, their bodies rendered in browns, greens, and teals with botanical sprigs scattered throughout. The composition balances organic movement with methodical arrangement, creating a sense of curious inquiry into the natural world through precise line work and muted earth tones. 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.
