Identity: the face, skin, body and hair are the subject's own and never change. Where a hairstyle is described below, style the subject's own hair into it; never change the hair's colour, length or texture. Apply only the outfit, makeup, hairstyling, pose and setting described below.
Create an oil painting portrait.
Subject: the subject from the collarbone up, painted in oils. The subject's own hair is worn up in a loose knot with strands falling across the forehead and loose strands escaping at the temples and nape. Makeup applied to the subject's own face: long lashes, lips in a
muted rose. Thick gold hoop earrings and a fine gold chain necklace with
a small heart pendant. The subject wears a black top with thin straps and a soft scooped neckline.
Action: head turned 30 degrees to the subject's left in three-quarter view, chin slightly lifted, eyes cast
down and to the subject's left away from the lens, lips closed, expression calm and distant.
Setting: a broad tree trunk rising close behind the subject on the right in ochre and brown strokes,
dappled green and golden foliage on the left with patches of pale blue sky breaking through, all
loosely painted with no fine detail.
Visual style: oil on canvas — visible impasto brushstrokes, thick loaded paint catching the
highlights on the face and shoulder, loose
broken colour in the background, warm earthy palette of ochres, greens and deep browns, canvas
weave showing through in places. Painted, never photographic.
Composition: vertical frame, subject centred and slightly left, head filling the upper two-thirds
of frame, cropped at the collarbone, the tree trunk running vertically behind the subject's right shoulder
and the foliage filling the upper left.
Lighting: warm dappled daylight from the front left, soft modelling across the face, warm
reflected light lifting the shadow side, no hard shadow edges anywhere.
Text inside: none.
Constraints: never render photoreal, three-dimensional or digitally smooth, never blend the
brushwork into an airbrushed finish, never remove the canvas texture or visible strokes, never
turn the eyes to the lens, never smile or part the lips, never crop below the collarbone, never add
props, jewellery beyond that described, or a second figure, never cool or desaturate the warm
palette, never render fine detail in the background, never change the subject's face, skin or body, and never change the colour, length or texture of the subject's hair — style it only as described.
Output: 9:16 vertical.
