A snow leopard sits upright against a deep purple ground, its cream-colored body covered in dark purple spots that echo the feline's natural markings. The animal wears a cheerful mustard yellow hat, gazing forward with expressive eyes in a composition that balances whimsy with the graphic simplicity of mid-century illustration. 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.
