Six drooping white tulips bow gracefully from dark olive-green stems against a soft sage background, their delicate petals rendered in stark white with subtle shading that suggests fragility and decline. The composition is spare and centered, with the flowers arranged in two loose columns that create a quiet, meditative rhythm suggestive of late winter or early spring. 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.
