Deep red protea flowers with layered petals cluster densely across a dark navy ground, surrounded by lush sage and teal foliage rendered in loose, painterly brushstrokes. The composition balances warm coral and golden accents against cool botanical greens, creating a richly layered botanical pattern with the loose, expressive quality of watercolor. 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.
