A hand-drawn checkerboard in tan and white squares creates a gently warped, organic grid that curves and undulates across the composition as if viewed through rippling water. The irregular edges and imperfect alignment of each square give the geometric pattern a soft, almost meditative quality, capturing the human touch beneath the precision of the form. 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.
