A solitary house glows softly beneath a sprawling tree on the banks of the Minumagawa River, its warm window light contrasting with the deep indigo night sky scattered with fireflies. The composition draws the eye along the dark water's gentle curve, using masterful gradations of blue and black to evoke the quiet mystery of a summer evening in rural Japan. 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.
