A stylized leopard coils through a composition of bold black flowers against a golden yellow ground, its spotted body rendered in detailed dotted patterns that create rhythm and visual texture. The figure-ground relationship is ambiguous and playful, with the animal and flora intertwining in a flat, graphic style that echoes mid-century modern illustration. 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.
