A lush olive tree with feathery green foliage rises against a pale blue sky, its branches reaching upward in a natural, unhurried pose. The soft Mediterranean light and clear horizon evoke the quiet dignity of Italian countryside, rendered with a calm photographic eye that finds grace in everyday botanical life. 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.
