Two swans curve their necks together in an intimate embrace, their bodies rendered in soft cream and warm tan against a stark black background. The composition uses bold negative space and flowing lines to capture a moment of tenderness, with minimalist linework defining the birds' forms in an art deco sensibility. 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.
