The kite caught low
A child in a coral coat reaches toward a kite caught on a low branch while a dog holds the loose ribbon. A broad tree behind, bold outlines, flat pastel fills, no text.
Three visual levels keep a playful problem easy to follow.
Before you publish
- Too many equally bright props weaken the hierarchy.
- Flat fills do not imply editable vector output.
