A skeletal hand rendered in bold black line work reaches upward, cradling a delicate coral-pink butterfly poised on its fingertips. The composition balances mortality with fragility, set against a soft cream ground that emphasizes the stark contrast between the anatomical precision of bone and the soft, organic wings of the insect. 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.
