Finished editorial flat-colour illustration, 4:5 portrait, expressive hand-drawn marker edges. Elevated oblique view of one small harbour sheltered by an absurdly thick, hook-shaped breakwater. Its asymmetrical curve sweeps from the lower left toward the upper right, enclosing a simple cocoa-brown water basin. Inside, a short quay holds one squat warehouse and a tiny moored tug, both subordinate to the monumental breakwater. A single oversized gold beacon stands at the narrow entrance, an ember-like accent without flames. Sand, sepia and warm brown shapes on a pale cream ground; gold nowhere else. Broad opaque marker fills, slightly uneven contours, a few pigment spatters along the outer seawall. Small dark wedges beneath quay edges suggest ambient contact shadows without gradients. Legible chunky silhouettes, no intricate masonry or rigging. Leave generous pale breathing room above and to the left. One continuous scene, no people, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
