Vertical 9:16 hand-painted digital illustration in the style of a modern indie animated music video: soft painterly gouache textures, slightly muted palette, gentle grain, realistic proportions, flat soft lighting. Scene: an empty corridor of an old post-Soviet Russian school in autumn, around 2017 — tall wooden-framed windows on the right with golden birch trees outside, cream upper walls and dark green painted lower walls, an old cast-iron radiator under the window, worn linoleum floor with warm sunlight patches. On the wide white windowsill in the lower right third lies a spiral notebook with a pastel sunset cover and a smartphone in a pink heart-pattern case. Nobody in the frame. Camera: eye level at windowsill height, 35mm lens, f/2.8, corridor receding diagonally toward the upper left vanishing point; asymmetric composition, notebook in the lower right third, negative space in the upper left. Quiet, nostalgic, melancholic mood. No text, no logos, no watermark.
