A platypus floats upside-down against a soft teal background, its cream-colored belly and brown bill facing the viewer while its scaled tail curves gracefully upward in a crescent shape. Brown fins flank its body in a playful arrangement, creating a lighthearted composition that celebrates this peculiar monotreme with gentle humor and folk-art sensibility. 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.
