Finished hand-drawn marker editorial illustration, landscape 4:3, silhouette-based graphic shadow play. In the left third, one exhausted adult sits sideways on a comically squat coral stool: broad rounded shoulders droop, a small head bows, unusually long arms hang loosely, simple mitten-like hands beside the knees. Solid deep-indigo body silhouette, no facial detail. A single theatrical spotlight from upper left creates a pale apricot pool and an oversized diagonal shadow stretching right across the floor. The figure remains whole; only the shadow's far tip separates into three large, progressively lighter patches, suggesting depleted energy. Flat warm-cream surroundings, no visible stage equipment or room clutter. Broad marker fills, slightly irregular edges, minimal internal marks, strong thumbnail readability, generous empty space above and right. Quiet, gently playful, not distressed. No medical setting or equipment. No text, logos or watermarks.
