A terracotta vase overflows with cream-colored organic foliage and scattered golden flowers, rendered in bold, flowing shapes against a deep black background. The composition uses striking contrast and simplified forms to create a joyful, almost abstract still life that channels the spirit of mid-century cut-paper collage. 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.
