A portrait of a woman with dark skin gazes directly outward, her face rendered with characteristic elongation and serene composure against a muted blue-gray background. She wears a striking crimson hat, a white turtleneck, and a gold chain necklace, her lips painted deep red and her eyes outlined with white, creating a bold graphic quality that combines modernist simplification with portraiture's intimate observation. 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.
