Three sardines rest on a cream plate against a deep blue background, surrounded by halved citrus slices, dark olives in a small bowl, and delicate botanical sprigs rendered in muted golds and grays. The composition employs a flattened, illustrative style with warm cream tones playing against the cool indigo ground, creating an intimate arrangement 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.
