Three blue-and-white striped sardines lie arranged on a blue gingham background with golden yellow accents, rendered in a clean, illustrative style with bold outlines and flat color. The composition evokes the simplicity of a vintage food tin or picnic scene, combining folk art sensibility with a contemporary graphic approach. 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.
