Cream-colored flowers with dark centers bloom across the top of a black composition, their organic forms creating a cheerful border above a dark vase rendered in forest green curves. Within the vase, a heart shape filled with a red and blue checkered pattern sits against the black ground, combining folk art sensibility with playful geometric contrast. 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.
