A single fern frond splits into two distinct halves, one rendered in deep teals and blacks with precise, linear leaflets and the other in brilliant oranges and yellows that seem to ignite the right side of the composition. Set against a soft beige ground, the symmetrical yet contrasting halves create a striking visual dialogue between cool and warm tones, suggesting both botanical study and abstract experimentation. 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.
