A checkerboard grid of black and cream squares fills the composition, with each square stamped or textured with organic forest imagery, botanical prints, and abstract marks that create visual depth against the flat geometric structure. The monochromatic palette and worn, distressed quality of the patterns evoke a vintage aesthetic, where nature and geometry exist in playful tension across the ordered surface. 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.
