Deep Water Rising
Two broad, hand-drawn blue water shapes interlock on warm ivory paper, suggesting deep ocean water rising beneath a sideways surface current.

Finished editorial marker illustration, square 1:1. Express ocean upwelling through exactly two interlocking water silhouettes in one continuous ocean gesture. A broad midnight-blue mass enters from the bottom edge and narrows into an absurdly tall, rounded tongue rising near the left third. A squat faded-turquoise surface ribbon curves around its tip and sweeps toward the right edge, suggesting surface water moving aside while deep water rises. The rising shape is smooth, not a breaking wave or splash. Exaggerated asymmetric proportions, bold thumbnail-readable shapes, slightly wobbly hand-drawn edges, broad marker fills with very light stroke variation. Warm ivory paper remains open across the upper third. Flat graphic lighting, restrained nostalgic seaside palette. Poetic and playful rather than scientific: no cutaway, arrows, labels, diagram conventions, intricate hatching or extra objects. No people, text, logos or watermarks.
