Five stylized fish swim vertically across a warm terracotta ground, each rendered in solid black with distinctive linear and dotted pattern details that give them individual character. The composition balances minimalist form with folk-art sensibility, creating a rhythmic, meditative arrangement that feels both ancient and contemporary. 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.
