You can never have too many notebooks! Printed front and back with a high quality reproduction of an original oil painting capturing the rotation of an upright figure skating spin with ghostly after-image figures that fade into the dark background. The rich warm tones of the dress and skin glow against the black, and the bright white skates draw the eye along the lines of the figure. The dark background lends it a classic feel, while the unique subject matter, colours and visible brushstrokes provide a modern twist. Inspired by the skating of 2022 World Champion Kaori Sakamoto (坂本花織). The painting is reversed on the back of the notebook for a seamless cover.
At 5x7" it fits into any bag, and even large coat pockets, making it super portable. Available blank or with ruled or cross dot graph paper it's suitable for all your journaling or sketching needs - Why not add it to your collection, or gift it to the notebook lover in your life!

Frequently Asked Questions
Gift wrapping and packaging
I pack paintings for shipping with several layers of plastic, paper, bubble wrap and cardboard for their safety. Wherever possible I try to recycle the packing materials used to ship my supplies and canvases to me, but I do generally use packing tape, and seal the painting in a single use plastic shipping bag. If you'd prefer that I ship your painting with no single use plastics, or even no plastic at all, send me a message after your order and I'll do what I can to accommodate!
Custom and personalised orders
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you're interested in a custom painting - I'll work with you to create something that lines up with your vision including providing you with digital mock up's before I start painting so you can rest assured that I understand what you're looking for. Bear in mind custom oil paintings can take several months to complete depending on size.
