A sprawling Manhattan skyline frames itself through a black-mullioned window, with iconic skyscrapers and the Empire State Building rising against a pale blue sky. Warm golden light bathes the foreground buildings below while the composition creates a layered depth, drawing the viewer's gaze from the industrial window frame through to the glittering urban expanse beyond. 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.
