Two intertwined serpents with intricate scale patterns weave through a lush garden of autumn foliage, their pale bodies creating fluid movement against a deep teal ground. Golden and chartreuse leaves in various stages of seasonal change frame the snakes in a richly layered composition that balances natural history illustration with decorative pattern work. 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.
