A stylized octopus with eight serpentine tentacles radiates outward from a central body rendered in deep indigo and navy tones. The creature floats against a tumultuous, textured background of churning turquoise and blue waters, creating a sense of fluid movement and oceanic mystery through layered, organic brushwork. 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.
