A Gown Full of Laughter
A contour-only graduate laughs with their head tipped back, one hand resting on an exaggeratedly wide academic gown.

Finished hand-drawn editorial illustration, landscape 4:3. One laughing graduate occupies the left two-thirds, shown full length in three-quarter view. Their plain academic gown has an absurdly broad bell-shaped silhouette above two tiny shoes; a long narrow neck supports a small head tipped backward and a tiny mortarboard. Two curved closed eyes and a simple open-mouth outline make the laughter unmistakable. One simple mitten-shaped hand rests against the belly; the other hangs loosely. Draw only confident, slightly irregular dark aubergine marker contours on warm ivory: unfilled shapes, no solid silhouette, no shading or hatching. Minimal garment lines, no insignia. Generous empty space on the right, joyful asymmetry, legible at thumbnail size. No text, logos or watermarks.
