A dark charcoal vase with a rounded, bulbous form holds a single stem of golden-olive leaves against a soft beige ground. The composition is centered and spare, with the organic foliage emerging upward in quiet contrast to the vase's solid geometry, creating a meditative balance between stillness and growth. 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.
