Finished hand-drawn marker storybook illustration, 16:9 landscape. Wide side-on view of one cyclist climbing a gently curving road across an ochre hillside. Place the rider in the right third, facing uphill to the right; the empty road sweeps in from the lower left. Exaggerate the rider's long curved back and broad thighs above a compact, recognizable bicycle with two equal wheels. Seated pedaling posture, bent elbows, simple mitten-like hands on the bars, tiny face beneath a plain helmet. Deep plum clothing, teal bicycle, charcoal contours. A large pale amber sun dissolves into smoky peach atmospheric haze, without visible smoke plumes or flames. Broad uneven marker fills, loose confident outlines, minimal wheel spokes, no intricate shading. Open upper-left sky provides breathing room. One continuous landscape, one rider, no other people. No text, logos or watermarks.
