A grid of nine whimsical sea creatures floats across soft cream circles, each rendered in bold, playful strokes with jewel-toned accents. A hermit crab and starfish anchor the composition alongside an elephant fish, colorful anemones, a striped creature, and a fan-like coral, all painted with loose brushwork and childlike joy. 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.
