A jeweled peacock perches among flowering branches and delicate foliage against a warm golden ground, rendered in the ornamental style of classical chinoiserie. Smaller birds nestle throughout the composition among blooming florals, creating a harmonious woodland scene suffused with soft greens, blues, and cream tones that evoke an aged fresco. 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.
