A gentle panda sits centered against a soft sage background, its round cream-colored face and body softened by brown ears and large feet. Mustard-yellow striped sleeves wrap around its arms, and a subtle smile conveys a calm, approachable sweetness rendered in soft, flat shapes with minimal detail. 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.
