A lion stands in profile against a soft mint green ground, its mane entirely composed of succulents, flowers, and trailing vines in shades of coral, purple, pink, and chartreuse. The creature's body remains naturalistic and earthy in warm tan tones, creating a striking contrast between its realistic form and the lush, garden-like crown that frames its noble face. 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.
