Cream and pale pink cranes glide across a deep teal ocean rendered in layered, rolling waves inspired by Japanese woodblock traditions, their wings extended in graceful flight. White foam crests dot the composition while distant mountains peek through the composition, creating a rhythmic, textile-like pattern that captures both movement and serenity against the dark water. 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.
