A winged bat hovers at the center of this intricately detailed composition, surrounded by ornamental flora, serpents, moons, and botanical elements rendered in golden linework against a deep black ground. The symmetrical arrangement creates a gothic, mystical atmosphere with occult symbolism woven throughout, from the crescent moons to the ornate wreaths and crawling vines that frame the central figure. 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.
