The Long-Armed Cactus
An asymmetric green cactus stands on a low peach sand mound inside a loose marker-drawn comic border.
Small 640×427, Medium 1200×800
Finished editorial marker illustration, 3:2 landscape, one comic-style narrative panel enclosed by a loose charcoal border. From a slightly low viewpoint, a single cactus occupies the right third on a shallow peach sand mound. Give it a comically broad, squat trunk, a tiny rounded left nub, and one extravagantly elongated right arm that bends inward across the upper part of the frame. Keep the silhouette unmistakably cactus-like, with no face. Three broad dark-green rib strokes and a few widely spaced thorn dashes; no intricate detail. A tiny plum shadow sits beneath it. Pale warm-cream sky and one low rust-coloured horizon line leave generous breathing room on the left. Thick imperfect felt-tip outlines, flat moss-green and lime fills, restrained visible marker overlaps. Playful proportions, clear thumbnail readability, no additional panels, no people, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
