Overlapping fish scales in a gradient pattern transition from soft pink at the top through lavender and mint green to turquoise at the bottom, each scale outlined in delicate burgundy lines. The composition creates a peaceful, almost hypnotic rhythm that evokes the shimmering surface of mermaid tail fins, rendered in pastel watercolor tones. 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.
