Five irises with dark charcoal petals and pale cream upper sections rise from slender green stems against a warm beige ground. The composition balances botanical precision with a gentle, contemplative quality, rendered in soft watercolor tones that emphasize the delicate structure of each bloom. 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.
