The soft edges and subtle color variations suggest watercolor's gentle hand, lending warmth to an otherwise structured, orderly composition. 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.
