Wordless instructional illustration as a tactile handmade poster, 3:2 landscape. In the lower-right half, one snail in side profile glides rightward across a broad fallen ochre leaf resting on a narrow strip of forest-floor paper. Its elongated soft body contacts the leaf continuously; two long raised eyestalks and two shorter feelers extend forward. A short translucent vellum ribbon trails directly behind the body, clearly demonstrating the mucus path without arrows or diagrams. Build the snail from warm gray torn paper with a cinnamon-brown shell made from a tightly coiled paper strip. Simple anatomically recognizable silhouette, restrained paper fibers, crisp cut edges and gentle shadows between layers. Flat sage-green background; leave the entire left half uninterrupted and empty. Soft upper-left light, muted earthy palette, clean editorial finish. One scene, one snail, no other organisms. No text, logos or watermarks.
