A black furry creature with wide, startled eyes sits centered on the page as a burst of small icons, symbols, and doodles explode upward from its head in a chaotic spray. The monochromatic line-work illustration uses red accent marks among the black marks to convey a sense of sudden revelation and overwhelming thoughts against a clean white ground. 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.
