Square finished editorial illustration of one rain-wet city-street corner, viewed obliquely from above. An absurdly broad blue puddle sweeps diagonally through the lower two-thirds, wrapping around a thick peach curb. Two narrow, asymmetric terracotta building facades are cropped along the upper-left edge; their elongated reflections wobble in the puddle. Three broad cream ripple bands suggest reflected light, not intricate water detail. Impasto-inspired painting made with chunky opaque strokes and a few visibly raised paint edges, combined with expressive hand-drawn marker contours. Simple large shapes, uneven edges, deliberately exaggerated proportions, legible at thumbnail size. Muted cobalt, peach, terracotta and warm ivory. Soft overcast light; pale atmospheric wash toward the far corner. Leave the upper-right area quiet and spacious. No people, vehicles, intricate hatching or tiny architectural details. No text, logos or watermarks.
