A portrait of a figure with rich brown skin and bold red lips gazes forward while an elaborate golden headdress crowns their head, constructed from ornamental patterns, dried flowers, feathers, and sculptural forms that rise dramatically upward. Against a soft sage green background, layers of beaded necklaces in coral, gold, and pearl tones frame the neck, creating a composition that celebrates maximalist adornment and artistic self-expression through intricate, textured detail. 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.
