Finished editorial illustration, 9:16 portrait. A tall grandmother with a small silver bun, minimal profile and a dramatically broad bell-shaped rust coat walks toward the lower right beside one comically elongated cream dog with very short legs. Her simple mitten holds a slack curved leash; the dog looks up at her while stepping forward. Place the pair across the lower two-thirds, leaving generous pale space above. One snowy path, no surrounding scenery. Snow-reflected light gives pale highlights beneath the coat hem and dog's belly; a broad powder-blue shadow grounds them. Copperplate-etching-inspired tapered, slightly wavering dark contours, reduced to a few expressive lines, combined with loose hand-drawn marker fills on warm ivory paper. No intricate hatching: large legible silhouettes, sparse details, subtly uneven colour edges. Gentle, playful companionship, not a mascot or icon. No text, logos or watermarks.
