Square editorial illustration of one worker painting an interior wall, viewed from a slightly low three-quarter angle. Place the worker left of centre: an exaggerated broad torso in navy overalls, long narrow legs, chunky boots, tiny face looking toward the roller. A simple charcoal prosthetic forearm with one understated joint holds the long roller handle; the other arm rests at their side. The oversized roller touches the upper edge of one broad coral paint strip, paused before the next stroke. Warm cream wall and a single floor line; generous empty space at right. Expressive hand-drawn marker contours and flat colour fills combined with a wood-engraving look: strong dark silhouettes, irregular ink edges, only a few broad white gouge marks. No intricate hatching. Navy, coral and cream, flat even lighting, clear shapes readable at thumbnail size. Ordinary work scene, no medical context or technical callouts. No text, logos or watermarks.
