A black and white Boston Terrier gazes directly forward with alert, expressive eyes and perked ears, rendered in intricate pen-and-ink linework that fills every contour with fine detail. The dog's portrait sits centered against a warm beige background patterned with delicate geometric motifs, creating a composed and contemplative study of the breed's distinctive markings and personality. 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.
