Art style: Paper Cut.
A medium, low-angle shot of the desk surface. In the background, the words 'expensive' and 'sensible' are crossed out with dark graphite strokes on a piece of parchment. Paper is seen from behind, walking away toward the screen-right edge. The lighting is dramatic and directional, casting long shadows. The palette is muted charcoal, parchment cream, and deep shadows.
