A massive, gnarled oak dominates the composition with sprawling branches that stretch across the frame in a monochromatic black and white photograph. The tree stands in an open field enclosed by white fencing, its dense canopy creating dramatic shadows and a sense of timeless permanence rooted in the Texas landscape. 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.
