Finished hand-drawn editorial illustration, landscape 16:9. One butterfly viewed from above, wings spread, its silhouette tilted diagonally across the right half with generous empty space at left. Exaggerate the proportions: a tiny short charcoal body, two simple curved antennae, enormous rounded upper wings, one noticeably broader than the other, and small drooping lower wings. Loose graphite contours and broad smudged pencil shading remain prominent over simple warm ochre marker fills. Only two large charcoal patches decorate the wings; no intricate veins or hatching. Pale cool highlights touch the lower wing edges against a warm cream paper ground. Expressive, slightly irregular handmade edges, strong thumbnail readability, minimal paper texture. No flowers, tools, people, diagrams, text, logos or watermarks.
