Rows of stylized fish in blue and red alternate across a white ground in a symmetrical, repeating pattern that evokes both natural specimens and decorative textile artwork. The composition balances cool slate-blue tones with warm coral-red accents, rendered in watercolor with precise linework that gives the fish an organized, almost scientific quality while maintaining a handcrafted warmth. 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.
