A coral rose and cream peony cluster with delicate green foliage against a deep black background, rendered with the precise detail and rich naturalism of classical Dutch Golden Age painting. A small snail winds among the blooms, while scattered buds and fine botanical elements create a sense of quiet observation and intimate study. 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.
