Style prompt
Use refined Japanese woodblock-print portrait treatment with flat vermilion, ink black, warm cream, and sparse muted olive. Separate forms by graceful contour and broad silhouette rather than volumetric shadow. Keep facial or focal linework extremely delicate, while the surrounding field carries fine branching ornament and slight ink grain. Use even diffuse illumination and almost no perspective depth. Balance one still simple shape against a busier pattern for calm elegance.Full example prompt
A square Japanese woodblock-style portrait shows a young woman in left-facing profile against an intense vermilion background filled with thin flowering branches. Her black hair is smooth and abundant, cut into a straight fringe over the forehead and gathered into a neat bun at the back. She lowers her eyes and chin, giving the pale face a quiet, inward expression. The forehead, nose, lips, and neck are outlined with delicate dark lines and slight warm shading. A nearly black kimono fills the lower-right portion, its broad shoulder curve edged by a narrow red and cream collar. Behind and around her, line-drawn blossoms, stems, and leaves spread across the red field. Some flowers are filled with darker red, while others remain little more than fine outlines. A few muted olive leaves and buds punctuate the lower left and right. The image is flat in space: the woman and floral screen sit close together, separated by strong silhouette rather than perspective or cast shadow. Light is even and diffuse, indicated by the warm cream of her skin and small tonal changes at the cheek and neck. The black hair and kimono have subtle ink grain, not glossy photographic highlights. The red ground contains faint print texture and slight variation in density. No room, landscape, or lettering appears. The woman's downward profile creates a still vertical counterpoint to the busy branching pattern. The overall composition is restrained and elegant despite the vivid red, balancing broad dark shapes, delicate facial linework, and intricate botanical ornament.
