A dense botanical arrangement displays layered foliage and flowering stems in muted greens, blacks, and deep reds, punctuated by bright yellow blooms that draw the eye downward through the composition. The hand-colored naturalistic style suggests a vintage scientific illustration, with careful attention to leaf detail and flower structure rendered in a classical engraving technique against a soft cream ground. 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.
