Dried and wilted flowers in shades of red, yellow, and cream scatter across a deep black ground, their papery petals and delicate stems arranged in a loose, organic composition. The work captures the quiet melancholy of decay, treating withered blooms with the reverence of a botanical study rendered in warm, earthy tones against darkness. 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.
