Finished editorial digital painting, 4:5 portrait, expressive hand-drawn marker treatment with broad opaque strokes, softly uneven edges and restrained pigment texture. One coral octopus viewed front-on underwater, its comically squat, wide head positioned below centre and left. Eight oversized arms spread outward into an open asymmetric fan rather than hanging downward: one long arm reaches toward the upper-right corner, while the others form broad, individually legible bends around the small body. Simple eyes and a lively, buoyant pose; no human accessories. Saturated turquoise water rendered as a nearly flat field with a subtle lighter wash overhead. Warm coral silhouette, a few darker coral shadow strokes, only a handful of large pale sucker marks. Keep generous uninterrupted turquoise space in the upper-left. Bold thumbnail-readable shapes, minimal detail, no intricate hatching, no scenery or other creatures. No text, logos or watermarks.
