A Native American rider sits astride a pinto horse, holding a long lance across his body in a poised, dignified stance. The figure is rendered in warm browns and creams with loose, expressive brushwork against a soft neutral background, capturing both the horse's musculature and the rider's traditional dress with economical detail. 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.
