A spotted dalmatian stands in profile against a soft, cream-colored background, rendered in a delicate watercolor style with precise black dots covering its lean form. Geometric shapes in coral, forest green, and deep blue frame the composition at the edges, creating a modern, almost abstract border that contrasts with the naturalistic rendering of the dog. 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.
