A golden sun rises or sets in concentric circles of cream, orange, and coral above a stylized ocean, its reflection rippling downward in undulating waves of blue, teal, yellow, and white. The composition uses bold geometric bands and flowing curves to capture the warmth of daybreak or dusk meeting cool water, rendered in a retro-inspired palette that evokes mid-century modern optimism. 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.
