A collection of mudskippers in various poses and color variations fills a warm taupe ground, each small fish rendered with careful detail and playful personality. The creatures display naturalistic browns and tans alongside unexpected jewel tones of blue, pink, and purple, creating a whimsical contrast between scientific observation and imaginative interpretation. 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.
