A checkerboard pattern of mustard yellow and cream squares warps and undulates across the composition, creating a hypnotic optical illusion that appears to pulse and curve. The geometric precision of the checkerboard clashes with the fluid, wave-like distortion, evoking the kinetic visual experiments of 1970s op-art and contemporary digital artwork trends. 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.
