Tall poplar trees rise like sentinels along a winding dirt road, their dark green forms creating a vertical rhythm against a soft, luminous sky rendered in pale yellows and blues. The composition captures the gentle French countryside with loose, broken brushstrokes that dissolve forms into atmosphere, bathing the entire scene in the golden-green light of late afternoon. 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.
