Prompt:
A shrink to fit gouache and ink painting featuring a stylized, vibrant landscape in an illustration style with a palette of ((white, and deep blue), deep purples, (yellows and deep green), reds, and hints of orange. ART DECO style landscape, with lots of houses and lots trees) and plants
In the background, a dark blue zentangle patterned sky transitions to black towards the corners, with a flock of small birds silhouetted against the lighter blue.
The scene includes a cluster of whimsical trees dominating the upper two-thirds of the frame. These trees have thick, sinuous trunks in a cream color that transitions to a zentangle patterned orange area at the top. The foliage is a mixture of deep blues and dark purples, with a few trees having bright yellow zentangle patterned canopies, lending a magical, otherworldly feel to the image.
In the lower third of the image, there's a charming, quaint village set at nighttime. The houses are depicted, in Bernard Buffet style, in simple, geometric shapes with white walls and orange roofs that have a soft glow, suggestive of interior light spilling out through unseen windows. The architectural style is reminiscent of traditional European countryside dwellings.
The landscape around the village is lush with varied vegetation, depicted in rich blues, greens, purples, and occasional pops of orange. A winding white path leads from the foreground to one of the houses, inviting the viewer into the scene. The ground is textured with numerous small flowers and plants, adding an intricate tapestry of flora to the composition.
The overall aesthetic should convey a sense of enchantment and serene beauty, with a palate of saturated, contrasting colors and bold, graphic shapes.
