A tall dark cypress tree rises sharply against a swirling night sky filled with eleven glowing stars and a crescent moon rendered in thick, expressive brushstrokes of deep blue, yellow, and white. Below, a small village with a prominent church steeple nestles in the valley, its warm lights contrasting with the cool, turbulent cosmos that dominates the composition with restless, hypnotic energy. 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.
