A gnarled tree trunk stretches upward with delicate green foliage clustered along its weathered branches, rendered in soft watercolor with careful botanical precision. The composition captures the tree from a low angle against a cream ground, emphasizing the organic architecture of bark and growth with muted greens and earthy browns. 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.
