A cream-colored kangaroo with alert, upright ears faces forward against a deep mauve background, its simplified features rendered in warm taupes and soft earth tones. The geometric flatness of the composition and the character's gentle expression create a calm, contemporary animal portrait that feels both whimsical and grounded. 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.
