A warm terracotta coffee cup sits centered on a dark saucer against a soft beige ground, with a wooden spoon resting inside the cup's dark interior, while the phrase "But First Coffee" appears in small lettering above. The composition employs a minimal, geometric illustration style with flat shapes and muted earth tones that convey quiet morning ritual and understated humor. 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.
