  • Prompt: Full-screen, complete width, broad, 16:9 format of a delicate illustration with rich colors, executed on rough handmade paper of poem number 57, Murasaki Shikibu, of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu: "As I was wondering / whether or not I had seen it / by chance, / it became cloud-hidden, / the face of the midnight moon!" The image shows a modern Japanese woman in a business blazer and skirt standing on a busy sidewalk facing the viewer. Pedestrians pass her by in the opposite direction, away from the viewer, rushing past her in a blur. Only the woman is completly in focus. She has a bewildered expression on her face, as if she has just seen someone and is trying to process what exactly she saw. It is night, and neon advertisement signs are flashing in bright colors. High above the myriad, colorful neon signs is a nighttime sky with a very small, pale, white moon half-hidden behind clouds. The image is permeated by a sense of confusion and melancholy. The image is rendered as an exceedingly detailed, highly symbolic, large, zentangle-like, watercolor magazine illustration with enormous detail at the "Where's Waldo?" level. Extreme clarity of rendering, contemporary, symbolical motif. Masterful technique. Exquisite Japanese folio.
