Art style: Watercolor.
A modern office cubicle at exactly five o'clock, with a digital desk clock glowing '17:00'. Marcus stands by his desk, gripping the strap of a dark leather messenger bag, his body turned toward the exit. His expression is flat and resolved, showing no hesitation. The office is bathed in the cool, fading light of late afternoon mixed with pale fluorescent glare. The mood is detached and final. Dominant colors are cool grey, navy blue, and pale amber.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Watercolor" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Watercolor". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Watercolor" idiom, not in any other medium.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Marcus: A senior project manager in his late 30s with short-cropped dark hair, subtle stubble, and a sharp but tired gaze. He wears a casual navy blue sweater and a simple wrist watch. Standing in a dimly lit office kitchen next to a stainless steel coffee machine, with cold blue light from a laptop screen reflecting on his face, conveying a sense of detachment and quiet cynicism.
