A lush bouquet of proteas and wildflowers explodes from a blue-and-white patterned ceramic vase, their coral, magenta, and turquoise petals rendered in bold, expressive strokes against a warm peachy-orange background. The composition balances loose, gestural brushwork with graphic contours, creating a joyful tension between structure and spontaneity that feels both modern and deeply rooted in the still life tradition. 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.
