Prompt: January Maiden — a magical winter girl embodying January in Ukrainian folklore. She glides lightly above a frozen pond that glows from within, as if starlight were trapped beneath the ice. The surface is covered with delicate, luminous snowflake patterns, soft circles, and frost-flowers that shimmer like quiet spells.
Snowflakes fall slowly around her, some transforming into tiny glowing symbols — stars, circles, ancient protective signs — before dissolving into light. The ice reflects her figure like an enchanted mirror, hinting at hidden worlds beneath.
Her long pale hair flows as if moved by invisible winter spirits, woven with silver threads and faint blue light. She wears an ethereal, flowing gown inspired by Ukrainian folk dress and fairy tales — translucent layers of indigo, blue, pale blue, silver, and white, adorned with magical frost embroidery resembling vyshyvanka motifs turned into winter runes.
The landscape feels enchanted and dreamlike: bare trees dusted with snow, soft moonlight, floating lights, and a sense that the forest is quietly watching. The mood is gentle, magical, and timeless — January as a fairy-tale threshold between worlds.
Color palette: indigo, deep blue, light blue, silver, white.
Style: Gabriel Pacheco–inspired illustration, poetic fairy-tale fantasy, soft surrealism, luminous details, painterly texture, dreamy children’s book magic.

Prompt: A vibrant and intricate close-up of a Japanese Hannya mask, an Oni demon mask, or a similar traditional Asian demon mask, featuring a primarily red face with a yellow lower half and chin, and golden teeth. The mask has large, bright yellow and orange eyes with dark pupils, outlined in green and blue. The eyebrows are depicted with stylized blue and green swirls. Two prominent, pointed horns protrude from the top of the mask, one on each side, colored in a gradient from reddish-pink towards an off-white or light yellow at the tips, with some white paint or residue visible on them. Dark, braided hair-like or string-like elements are attached near the horns, framing the face. The mask also features a textured surface with intentional peeling paint and chipping, revealing lighter brown or beige layers underneath, adding to its aged and weathered appearance. Spiky, pink and red coral-like or root-like structures emerge from around the edges of the mask and are scattered across a textured background, which appears to be old, stained paper or parchment, covered in faint black and red scribbled patterns and abstract designs, giving the impression of an ancient map or arcane text. The background also shows mottled reddish and brown stains. The mask's mouth is wide open, revealing sharp, golden fangs and teeth. The overall impression is one of intense detail, rich color, and a sense of dark, mythical energy., acrylic paste, alcohol ink klimt, Malika Favre, Jerry Pinkney

Prompt: “I was especially drawn to consider the stories of the fairies, the good folk of the Celtic races. Just as our remote ancestors called the dreaded beings “fair” and “good” precisely because they dreaded them, so they had dressed them up in charming forms, knowing the truth to be the reverse. Literature too had gone early to work, and had lent a powerful hand in the transformation, so that the playful elves of Shakespeare are already far removed from the true original and the real horror is disguised in a form of prankish mischief.”
Prompt: monochromatic symbolic folksy engraving image of the dancing fox-shapechanger in chinese silk flowing gown with five very long wriggling long-furred tails in old china style wet ant dry on rice paper, incorporating the colors red, orange, black and silver. vector ex-libris engraving, Gerard Brom, Junji Ito, Hokusai
