Same Jar, Different Price
A narrow, long-bodied shopper holds matching grocery jars with oversized coin-symbol price tags, rendered in bold cream, black and rust shapes.
Small 640×640, Medium 1200×1200
Square finished editorial illustration of one fictional researcher shopping for groceries, waist-up and offset left. An unusually long narrow torso, tiny oval head, simple round glasses and oversized mitten-like hands create a distinctive playful silhouette. Each hand holds an identical squat jar of golden preserves at the same height. Large cream price tags dangle from their necks: one shows a single plain coin pictogram, the other three matching coin pictograms, without digits or lettering. The shopper glances between the tags, elbows slightly raised, caught before choosing. A single low counter edge establishes the shop; no other merchandise. Wood-engraving-inspired black silhouettes with a few broad carved-white cuts, combined with expressive hand-drawn marker contours and flat rust and ochre fills. No intricate hatching. Warm cream background, generous empty upper quarter, clear thumbnail-readable shapes. One coherent scene, not a diagram. No text, logos or watermarks.
