Dark green alligators with detailed scaled bodies and open jaws swim through misty grey waters, their forms interlocking in a dense, rhythmic pattern across the composition. The muted palette of sage green, charcoal grey, and cream creates a swampy, atmospheric mood, while the precise illustration style gives each creature a sense of watchful presence and natural power. 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.
