Finished hand-drawn marker storybook illustration, ultra-wide 3:1. One marine ray glides just beneath the sea surface, viewed obliquely from above. Its comically broad, squat diamond-shaped body occupies the left third; one oversized pectoral fin curls upward, exposing a cream underside. A thin, gently curved tail trails across the middle toward the right. Tiny widely spaced eyes and a softly rounded front edge give it a gentle expression. Deep blue body, turquoise water, cream underside. A narrow strip of pale peach predawn sky above a softly wavering waterline establishes civil dawn; diffuse sky glow, no visible sun or hard light beams. Broad marker fills, loose confident contours, slight stroke overlap, minimal detail. Open water provides generous breathing room around the silhouette. No other animals, people, intricate hatching, text, logos or watermarks.
