Deep indigo irises with gracefully arching petals rise from a bed of vivid green foliage and warm brown earth, their forms rendered with characteristic thick, expressive brushstrokes. The composition radiates outward from the dense cluster of blooms, creating a sense of natural abundance and movement against the softly layered background of yellows and greens. 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.
