A weathered white cross sits centered against a deep charcoal ground, its edges rough and distressed as though worn by time and mountain elements. The composition is stark and symmetrical, evoking the alpine rescue insignia of ski patrol with a minimalist intensity that feels both protective and austere. 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.
