Tundra in Loose Stitches
A wide, low tundra hummock with pale snow patches and wind-bent grasses, drawn in dashed marker contours beneath a gold horizon.

Finished hand-drawn editorial illustration, 3:2 landscape. A comically broad, squat tundra hummock fills the lower-left two-thirds, its asymmetric shoulder sloping toward a distant low horizon. Treeless terrain with a few oversized cream snow patches, simple moss shapes and sparse short grasses bent sharply in one direction. Chunky dark-umber marker dashes trace the terrain and snow edges like loose running stitches; broad flat marker fills, slight handmade wobble, no intricate needlework or hatching. Warm brown and tan palette on an unbleached cream ground, with a single narrow gold glow along the horizon. Exaggerated horizontal proportions, taut diagonal contours, clearly legible terrain at thumbnail size. Leave generous quiet sky above and open space at the right. Flat textile-inspired treatment, not a photographed embroidery object, not a diagram. No people, text, logos or watermarks.
