A skeletal cowboy astride a black horse carries two massive red skull heads decorated with ornate white filigree and crowned with a small skeleton emblem. The composition balances macabre imagery with Western frontier elements, rendered in rich reds and blacks against a cream background, framed by ornamental scrollwork and decorative flourishes in a vintage engraving style. 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.
