A vintage motel sign rises vertically against a soft light blue sky, its rounded letters spelling "MOTEL" in cream and gray tones, topped with a starburst fixture that evokes mid-century Americana. The composition captures clean geometric forms and muted pastels in a deadpan, documentary style that treats this roadside icon as architectural sculpture. 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.
