A figure with a shaved head and deep brown skin gazes directly outward with a composed expression, one hand raised thoughtfully near their face while a delicate butterfly rests on their cheek. The subject wears a striking blue and lavender striped garment against a soft neutral background, rendered in a clean, illustrative style that emphasizes bold contours and expressive facial features. 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.
