Finished editorial cut-paper collage illustration with expressive hand-drawn marker contours, 3:2 landscape. One sage sprig viewed from directly above, stretching diagonally across the left two-thirds. Five absurdly broad, rounded oblong leaves cluster around a tiny crooked stem; one leaf is much larger than the others, making a playful asymmetric fan. Recognizable muted gray-green sage foliage, softly scalloped edges, one broad marker stroke for each central vein. Overlapping matte paper shapes in sage green and dusty olive, slightly irregular scissor-cut edges, minimal paper grain, loose dark-green marker outlines. Warm apricot background with restrained pale-ochre accents along a few leaf edges. Flat, bold, deliberately simple construction; no intricate veins or hatching. Leave the right third mostly empty with comfortable outer margins. No accessory, container or people. No text, logos or watermarks.
