Day Two - Value

• Model: Artistic

• Size: 1168 X 880 (1.03 MP)

• Used settings:

  • Prompt: Create an image with a collage-style portrait against a background composed of vintage newspaper clippings in various shades of sepia, featuring typewritten text and occasional photographs. The portrait is vertically centered and stylized with geometric abstraction. Foreground shows a female face—fair skinned with symmetrical features. Her eyes are almond-shaped, rendered realistically with sharp eyebrows, blue irises, and thick lashes, bringing a sense of depth and focus. The nose is indicated only by its shadow, subtle yet dimensional. Lips are full and vivid red. Geometric shapes in pastel and bold colors frame the facial features—triangles, rectangles, and a semicircle adorn the head like a cubist crown. The shapes use matte blues, reds, oranges, beiges, and a touch of teal. They partially overlay the face, replacing hair and clothing with an abstract representation. The proportions of the face are idealized, following classic standards of beauty with a long, elegant neck represented by a simple black vertical rectangle. This modern, mixed-media art piece juxtaposes the flat, angular shapes against the realistic rendering of the face, fusing traditional portraiture with avant-garde elements.
