Horizontal stripes in warm terracotta, soft blue, and pale blush tones stack across a white ground, creating a rhythmic composition inspired by layered desert landscapes. The hand-painted quality of the bars, with their slightly irregular edges and muted palette, evokes the geological strata of a southwestern mesa at sunset. 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.
