A cream-colored koala gazes forward with dark eyes and nose against a soft sage green background, wearing a patchwork sweater of muted pastels, geometric shapes, and delicate line patterns in coral, yellow, slate blue, and olive tones. The illustration employs a gentle, modern approach with simplified forms and textured details that create warmth and character without sentimentality. 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.
