A wet city street stretches toward a distant bridge and towering skyscrapers in this black and white photograph of Chicago, with rain-slicked pavement reflecting the urban landscape and scattered vehicles creating depth through the composition. The high contrast and grain of the image convey the gritty, contemplative atmosphere of a modern metropolis on an overcast day. 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.
