Layered botanical forms crowd a near-black ground, where pale pink roses and cream tulips nestle among deep burgundy blooms, mustard leaves, and glimpses of birds rendered in rich earth tones. The composition reads as a dense, romantic garden frozen in time, with the artist employing detailed linework and muted jewel tones to create an atmosphere of vintage natural history illustration. 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.
