A luminous oval medallion frames Venus emerging from the waters, her pale form attended by cherubs in a soft, peachy composition centered within an ornate gold border. The surrounding hot pink ground blooms with delicate floral garlands, exotic birds, and decorative rococo flourishes that create an atmosphere of romantic opulence and 18th-century grandeur. 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.
