A striped lighthouse with bold red and white bands stands tall against a soft beige ground, its lantern room crowned with an iron gallery and weathered brown base. The composition centers the tower in studied stillness, rendered in careful detail with muted tones that evoke a vintage nautical illustration. 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.
