A minimal flat editorial illustration with fine clean black contour lines, smooth colour fields and a dusting of printed grain, values kept pale with an ivory ground, powder pink, peach, mint, aqua and lavender and black as the only deep accent. An isolated motif set of kitchen herbs in a square frame: five separate herb sprigs, basil, rosemary, thyme, sage and mint, each drawn as its own small motif with fine black contours and flat pastel fills, spaced evenly in a loose arrangement on an ivory ground with wide margins.
Light: flat editorial light on ivory with a dusting of printed grain, fine clean black contours, pastel fills in mint, aqua, lavender and peach for the five herbs; palette of ivory, mint, aqua, lavender, peach and black; fresh, light, tidy.
Square 1:1 frame, centred composition with breathing room on all sides. A single isolated subject or small set of separate motifs centred on a plain empty ground with generous margins, each motif complete and unclipped, no text, labels, logos, people or backgrounds scenes.
