A brown bear sits alone on rocky ground, gazing upward at a stormy grey sky where constellation lines form the shape of the Great Bear overhead. The moody, textured background merges fog and shadow with delicate white geometric star-maps, creating a contemplative dialogue between earthbound creature and cosmic wonder. 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.
