Vertical stripes in teal, brown, coral, gold, and beige stack in a rhythmic pattern across a neutral ground, creating a sense of calm order. The palette and proportions evoke the optimism of midcentury artwork, with each stripe rendered in flat, even tones that feel both structured and warm. 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.
