A Little Leaf Care
A low-angle marker-and-ink illustration of a gardener cleaning an oversized houseplant leaf above a wide terracotta pot.
Small 640×640, Medium 1200×1200
Finished hand-drawn ink and marker editorial illustration, square 1:1. Floor-level upward view: a comically wide, squat terracotta pot fills the lower-right foreground, supporting a houseplant with one enormous paddle-shaped leaf and two small companion leaves. Behind it, one gardener with an elongated curved torso, short legs and a tiny head leans forward, gently resting a cream cleaning cloth against the large leaf. Simple mitten-like hands, minimal face, deep blue clothing. The leaf-cleaning gesture is the clear focal point. Loose confident black ink contours, broad green and terracotta marker fills, slight uneven stroke edges. A narrow electric-pink accent on rear edges suggests neon backlight without adding a lamp. Warm pale-peach background, one simple grounding shadow, generous empty upper-left space. Quiet and playful, legible at thumbnail size. No intricate hatching, extra props, text, logos or watermarks.
