A figure with dark skin sits cross-legged against a coral and cream patterned background, their body rendered in solid black with a sculptural quality. A horizontal black band crosses their eyes like a mask or blindfold, while their gaze remains direct and composed, creating a striking tension between concealment and presence. 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.
