The composition balances warm cream and pale lavender tones against pools of violet shadow, while sketchy foreground details and atmospheric sky suggest the fleeting quality of Mediterranean light. 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.
