A green scorpion with a serene face gazes upward within a cream circle set against a deep teal background, surrounded by scattered golden rays. The composition balances minimalist forms with gentle, contemplative energy, rendered in a flat illustrative style that feels both modern and timeless. 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.
