Twenty colorful betta fish swim across a deep black ground, each rendered in jewel tones of electric blue, hot pink, crimson red, and golden orange with intricate fin details and scaled patterns. The composition arranges the fish in a loose grid, creating a rhythmic, almost cabinet-of-curiosities feeling that celebrates the baroque complexity of these freshwater creatures. 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.
