Shell Fan Half-Drop
A square coastal repeat of broad, asymmetric shell fans, built from layered paper shapes and loose marker contours.
Small 640×640, Medium 1200×1200
Square 1:1 finished cut-paper collage illustration of a seamless half-drop repeat. One distinctive shell-fan motif repeats in three generously spaced columns; adjacent columns shift vertically by exactly half the repeat spacing. Motifs continue naturally across the tile edges. Each fan is absurdly broad and squat, with one oversized rounded lobe, a tiny base, and just two nested paper bands. Shell-pink and chalk-cream cutouts sit on a sea-glass-green ground, edged with loose, thick deep-teal marker strokes. Keep the same asymmetric silhouette throughout the repeat. Slightly uneven scissor-cut edges, flat marker fills, faint paper-layer shadows and a sun-washed finish. Strong thumbnail readability, ample open ground between motifs, lively diagonal rhythm. Flat overhead artwork, not a photographed craft table or an icon sheet. No intricate shell grooves, people, text, logos or watermarks.
