A cream-colored tulip with delicate petals stands upright against a warm brown ground, surrounded by four drooping pink petals that curve downward in a graceful, almost melancholic frame. The composition uses bold, flat shapes and a restrained color palette to create a contemplative botanical study with a gentle, hand-drawn quality. 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.
