Finished square editorial illustration combining cut black paper with expressive hand-drawn marker edges. One tortoise in side profile occupies the lower-left portion: an enormous uneven domed shell, four tiny blunt feet, a short pointed tail, and an improbably long slender neck reaching upward to the right. Its small rounded head has one tiny mint eye cutout. Keep the reptile instantly legible through its outer silhouette; no shell pattern or anatomical detail. Matte black paper shape, slightly irregular scissor-cut contours, broad marker texture only at the edges. Flat jade background with a large softly edged mint pool of light entering from upper right, suggesting an unseen practical lamp. A short teal grounding stroke beneath the feet. Generous empty space across the upper half, playful asymmetry, simple flat colour, no realistic shading. No people, text, logos or watermarks.
