The Uneven Satin Bow
A lavender satin bow with dramatically unequal loops, broad blue highlights, and sparse plum motifs on a warm peach background.
Small 427×640, Medium 800×1200
Finished hand-drawn marker editorial illustration, 2:3 portrait. One lavender satin ribbon tied into a dramatically asymmetric bow, viewed straight on: an enormous tall rounded loop on the left, a tiny tucked loop on the right, a compact knot and two short, broad unequal tails. Place the bow left of centre, leaving generous warm peach negative space on the right. Show satin sheen through a few broad pale-blue highlight bands following the folds, with deep plum shadows beneath the knot. A handful of oversized plum lozenge motifs bend with the ribbon; no intricate weave detail. Loose dark-violet marker contours, slightly uneven translucent colour fills, simple bold shapes and softly rounded folds. Cool fading-light accents against a warm ground. Keep the silhouette unmistakable at thumbnail size. No people, scenery, text, logos or watermarks.
