A woman with a voluminous black afro and warm brown skin gazes sideways against a bright yellow ground scattered with lemon slice patterns, wearing large hoop earrings and a striped black-and-white collar. The illustration captures her with rosy cheeks and full lips, rendered in a bold, graphic style that feels both joyful and confidently poised. 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.
