A black eight ball with a white stripe sits on a deep blue pool table beside a white cue ball, with a wooden cue angled into the lower left corner. The composition uses clean geometric forms and a limited color palette to capture a quiet moment of anticipation before the break shot. 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.
