A stylized poplar leaf splits into a dynamic burst of striped segments in teal, orange, yellow, and navy, each piece layered with textured hatching marks that suggest movement and depth. Against a soft beige ground, the composition captures the essence of autumn botanicals through bold color blocking and gestural mark-making, balancing precision with spontaneity. 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.
