A colorful kingfisher perches on the delicate stem of a white lotus flower, its jewel-toned plumage of blue, orange, and yellow creating a striking focal point against soft gray and blue tones. The composition balances the bird's presence with the serene simplicity of the botanical elements, rendered in the refined style of traditional Japanese woodblock printing with subtle washes and precise linework. 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.
