Layered peonies and ranunculus blooms emerge from deep shadow in this black and white composition, their ruffled petals catching light while darker flowers recede into mystery. The tightly cropped arrangement creates an almost suffocating abundance, celebrating the ornate complexity of each flower with the chiaroscuro intensity of Old Masters painting. 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.
