A minimalist marker sketch like an illustrator's travel-poster drawing: very few loose, broad, translucent marker strokes and sparse pen lines, a restricted two-to-three tone marker palette, scratchy dry edges and visible stroke overlaps, most of the paper left open. Sunrise over a still lake: a large sun disc half above a low line of hills, its reflection as a column of broken horizontal marker strokes on the water, a small wooden jetty and a single reed clump at the lower left, centred in the square.
Light: the sun and its reflection in warm orange and coral, the sky left as open cream paper with one broad pale peach wash, the hills in a single violet-grey tone and the water in layered cool blue-grey strokes, a few sparse black pen lines for the jetty and reeds; the reflection column leads from the jetty to the sun. Palette of coral, orange, violet-grey, blue-grey and cream; airy, quick, graphic.
Square 1:1 frame, centred composition with breathing room on all sides. No people, animals, boats, readable text, signs or logos.
