Bold, cutout silhouettes rendered in saturated cobalt blue create a composition of rhythmic lines and organic curves characteristic of Matisse's expressive approach to the human form. 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.
