Vertical black and white stripes ripple and flow across the composition, creating an optical rhythm that suggests the movement of water or wind rather than static bands. The varying widths of the marks, rendered in charcoal and cream tones, build an abstract pattern that evokes natural motion and energy through its gestural, hand-drawn quality. 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.
