A serpent winds gracefully through a lush garden of sunflowers and wildflowers rendered in deep greens, warm golds, dusty rose, and rich blacks against a soft cream background. A crescent moon and botanical snake illustrations anchor the composition, surrounded by stars and leaves in an intricate folk-art style that feels both mystical and grounded, with the text "Year of the Snake 2025" lettered in bold capitals at the top. 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.
