Finished editorial illustration, ultrawide 3:1. One freely stylised planktonic copepod floats against a plain warm-cream field. Place its comically squat coral teardrop body in the right third, with a tiny forked tail and three short paddle-like appendages. Two enormously elongated antennae sweep toward the left in different broad, winding curves, leaving generous open space around them. No human face. Dark teal, loose hand-drawn marker contours surround opaque coral and peach paint fills. Impasto-inspired painting expressed through a few thick, blunt brush swipes and uneven painted edges, not intricate surface texture. Strong asymmetrical silhouette, cheerful proportions, legible at thumbnail size. Restrained palette, flat background, no scenery or extra organisms. Playful artwork, not a scientific illustration or diagram. No text, logos or watermarks.
