Use the uploaded image as the facial reference and preserve facial identity with maximum accuracy. Maintain recognizable facial structure, eye shape, eyebrow form, nose proportions, lip contour, jawline, skin characteristics, and overall likeness while creating a completely new artistic composition, pose, expression, styling, and environment.

Create a museum-quality mixed-media portrait artwork that feels handcrafted by a master artist over multiple sessions, combining traditional and contemporary art techniques into a richly layered visual experience.
