Tall Stool, Squat Shadow
A teal stool with a thick rectangular seat and elongated legs stands beside its broad blue shadow on a warm cream ground.
Small 640×640, Medium 1200×1200
Finished hand-drawn marker editorial illustration, square 1:1. One backless teal stool stands left of centre, viewed from a slightly elevated three-quarter angle. Give it a comically thick rectangular slab seat and four improbably long, slender legs, clearly separated by open negative space. Build the stool as one bold readable silhouette with only a dark seat edge to clarify its construction. Its attached muted-blue cast shadow stretches diagonally toward the lower right, forming the second, broad and squat silhouette; preserve a recognizable seat-and-leg outline. Warm cream paper ground, generous empty space above and to the right. Flat matte colour, softly uneven marker edges, a few broad overlapping strokes, restrained highlights. Simple directional light from upper left, no extra objects or decorative marks. Playful proportions, legible at thumbnail size. No people, no text, no logos or watermarks.
