A lanky neighbour and a broad, seated neighbour share coffee beside an oversized terracotta pot in a sun-dappled courtyard.

Finished hand-drawn marker storybook illustration, 3:2 landscape. Two adult neighbours sit at one small round courtyard table, grouped right of centre. One has an elongated torso, narrow shoulders and a mustard shirt; the other has a broad pear-shaped silhouette, short legs and a teal cardigan. Minimal faces and simple hands resting beside two coffee cups; relaxed attention toward each other. An oversized squat terracotta ceramic coffee pot with a curved spout is the table's visual anchor. Eye-level view, shallow compressed depth, gently overlapping silhouettes. Leaf-filtered morning sunlight makes three broad pale-gold patches across the tabletop and warm cream paving. Loose pressure-varied dark marker contours, flat coral, teal and mustard fills, occasional visible marker streaks. A single muted sage wall establishes the courtyard; generous uncluttered space at left. No intricate foliage, hatching, extra people or elaborate props. No text, logos or watermarks.
