A solitary lifeguard tower stands sentinel atop rocky, layered cliffs overlooking a calm beach scattered with dark boulders, captured in crisp black and white photography. The composition draws the eye from the textured foreground rocks through the undulating hillside to the distant tower, creating a stark landscape that emphasizes the isolation and quiet grandeur of the California coast. 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.
