Finished hand-drawn editorial ink illustration, 3:2 landscape. One solitary horn-coral fossil lies on its side in the right half, shown in profile. Exaggerate its squat silhouette: an enormous flared cup narrowing abruptly into a short, hooked tip. The cup faces upper right; the curled tip points downward. Thick, slightly uneven black felt-marker contours on warm ivory, with only four widely spaced curved growth-ridge strokes and a chipped rim to suggest weathered stone. A narrow glimpse of the cup interior is filled charcoal black. One bold, flattened black shadow pools beneath the fossil, suggesting dramatic light from upper left. Playful proportions with an eerie, quiet presence. Keep the entire left half empty and leave comfortable margins around the object. No branching colony, rock slab, intricate hatching, diagram elements or decorative props. No people, text, logos or watermarks.
