Finished editorial illustration, landscape 2:1. One cracked walnut sits low and left of centre, viewed obliquely from slightly above. Its two rose-coloured shell halves are comically broad and shallow, opening outward around one oversized mustard-gold kernel. Keep the walnut unmistakable with a scalloped shell edge and just three broad rounded folds in the kernel. Simple oil-paint-look opaque colour masses, visible broad brush edges and loose hand-drawn marker contours; no intricate texture or hatching. Deep navy background and tabletop merge into one uncluttered ground. A pale diagonal sweep of light crosses beneath the walnut, with a short soft shadow anchoring it. Playful asymmetric silhouette, strong thumbnail readability, generous empty space on the right. No people, no text, no logos or watermarks.
