The composition uses bold primary colors, sharp realism, and direct eye contact to convey an unambiguous message of refusal, rendered in the didactic style of mid-century Soviet public health messaging. 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.
