Prompt:
A close-up portrait in the style of Japanese ink-splash (sumi-e), depicting a pale-skinned young woman with fiery red hair flowing in sweeping, fluid strokes around her shoulders. Her face is the focal point, captured with delicate yet bold brushstrokes. Her large, light blue eyes gleam with an ethereal, almost otherworldly glow, imbued with an enigmatic and supernatural presence. Her nose is small and refined, and her lips, painted with a glossy black ink, reveal sharp, elongated fangs, giving her a vampire-like allure. The skin is smooth, with an almost porcelain quality, rendered with subtle, layered washes of ink that create depth through the fluidity of the brushstrokes.
The portrait is marked by energetic, free-flowing brushwork, the kind found in traditional ink painting, with emphasis on gestural, sweeping strokes that lend the piece both movement and life. The palette is dominated by deep blacks and shades of red, with the darkness of the ink punctuated by faint splashes of crimson, suggesting a gothic atmosphere. A cool, diffused light, achieved through negative space and light ink washes, subtly highlights the contours of her face, the sheen of her lips, and the texture of her fiery hair, all while a surrounding darkness envelops her in mystery. The combination of ink's fluid, unpredictable nature and the controlled elegance of her features evokes a delicate balance of realism and the supernatural, drawing inspiration from the dynamic abstraction of Francis Bacon, the weighty symbolism of Anselm Kiefer, and the expressive, emotive strokes of Egon Schiele.
