A single golden pear hangs from a reddish-brown branch surrounded by deep green leaves rendered in soft, naturalistic detail. The composition sits against a warm cream ground, evoking the delicate botanical illustrations of centuries past with its restrained palette and careful attention to form. 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.
