Subtle horizontal striations run through each square, adding tactile dimension to the geometric arrangement and lending the flat pattern an almost woven quality. 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.
