A brown meerkat stands upright against a bold orange ground, its elongated neck stretched skyward as a large pink circle frames its head like a sun or halo. The simplified forms and warm color palette create a confident, almost defiant mood, with the animal's posture suggesting strength and presence. 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.
