Neighbours on the Bend
A simple ink-and-marker illustration of a curving residential lane framed by two houses with contrasting exaggerated proportions.
Small 640×640, Medium 1200×1200
Finished editorial ink line illustration, square 1:1. View slightly downhill along one quiet residential lane curving from the lower right toward the upper left. On the left, a comically broad, squat coral house with a low roof; on the right, a very tall, skinny sage house with an asymmetric pitched roof. Their simple front doors face each other across the lane, suggesting a neighbourly greeting without figures. Each house has only two large windows. Expressive, slightly wobbly black marker contours, sparse flat marker colour, warm ivory paper background. Keep the lane mostly unfilled, with just two sweeping kerb lines. Bold, legible silhouettes and generous untouched paper above the bend. Hand-drawn charm, no intricate hatching, no elaborate architectural detail, no additional buildings or props. No people, no text, no logos or watermarks.
