A woman in flowing white and gold garments reclines in a dark gondola, her long copper hair cascading over the side as she gazes downward in a moment of quiet reverie. Dense forest in deep greens and browns frames the scene, while warm golden light filters through the trees, creating an atmosphere of romantic melancholy rendered in rich, layered brushwork. 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.
