A snow-laden birch tree stands luminous against a starry night sky, its delicate branches catching pale gold light while evergreens frame the left edge of a tranquil riverside scene. The composition draws the eye across a frozen landscape dotted with snow-covered stones toward distant lanterns, rendered in the classical Japanese woodblock tradition with soft gradations of blue-green, cream, and charcoal. 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.
