A delicate ranunculus plant with pale cream flowers and soft green foliage branches upward against a deep black ground, rendered in warm golden and ochre tones. The composition captures the botanical specimen with the precision of scientific illustration while maintaining an organic, naturalistic grace that suggests careful observation of the living plant. 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.
