Create a vertical contemporary textile artwork on a deep indigo cotton field. A pod of abstract whales swims upward through currents formed by hand-drawn batik cracks, crescent bubbles and flowing botanical motifs. Anchor the lower half with one large whale, then let smaller silhouettes rise into open negative space. Make the result look like authentic wax-resist dyed cloth photographed flat, not a smooth digital gradient. Limit the palette to indigo, chalk white, rust gold and muted turquoise. Show cotton weave, wax fissures, uneven dye blooms and stitched edge details. Original non-branded artwork only, with no readable text, logo, watermark, frame mockup or collage.
