Rust and verdigris patina spread across a weathered metal surface, creating an organic texture of burnt orange, copper, and teal-blue tones that suggest decades of oxidation and decay. A vertical seam bisects the composition, emphasizing the symmetrical distribution of corrosion in a meditation on time's wear and the austere beauty of industrial deterioration. 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.
