Geometric shapes in cream and gray form an interlocking abstract pattern reminiscent of 1950s artwork vocabulary, with four-pointed stars scattered throughout the composition. The cool, restrained palette and symmetrical arrangement create a sense of order and optimism characteristic of mid-century modernism. 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.
