The flat, hand-painted approach and warm color palette evoke mid-century modern optimism, while the playful composition suggests movement and lighthearted whimsy. 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.
