Three abstracted fish rendered in bold strokes of gold, orange, and pink float against a dark charcoal background with gestural white marks and splashes that suggest movement and chaos. The composition balances figuration with expressive mark-making, creating a sense of creatures suspended in an energetic, almost dreamlike space. 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.
