A Place Kept Quiet
A squat square dining table with an oversized stepped pedestal, one empty plate and a pressed flower, rendered in cobalt and tangerine marker strokes.

Finished hand-drawn marker editorial illustration, vertical 9:16. Viewed obliquely from above, one comically squat square dining table sits low and slightly right in a spare interior. Its thick square top overhangs a massive, short Art Deco stepped pedestal; emphatically blocky proportions, not long or oval. One small empty ivory plate and one flattened dried flower rest on the otherwise bare tabletop. A single simple chair is mostly tucked beneath the far edge. Cobalt-blue room and shadowed furniture, with broad tangerine light catching one tabletop edge and pedestal face from an unseen fireplace at left. One soft, simplified floor shadow. Uneven marker contours, broad flat fills, slight stroke overlap, no intricate grain or hatching. Quiet, gently poignant, with personality conveyed through the furniture silhouette rather than a face. Generous uninterrupted space above. No people, no text, no logos or watermarks.
