A stocky English bulldog stands in a weightlifting pose, gripping a barbell loaded with heavy plates across its broad shoulders. The figure is rendered in bold black line work against a cream background, capturing both the dog's determined expression and the humorous contrast between the animal's compact frame and the serious athletic stance. 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.
