#ColoredPencilDrawing #ColoredPencilArt #PencilSketching #HandDrawnIllustration #ColoredPencils #TraditionalArt #PortraitIllustration #DetailedArt #FineArtIllustration #ColoredPencilPortrait

Sampler / Engine: Euler a or DPM++ 2M Karras (great for fine details, soft shading, and realistic traditional art textures).

Steps: 30 to 40 steps (ensures clean, crisp pencil strokes and intricate cross-hatching).

CFG Scale (Guidance): 6.5 to 7.5 (keeps the prompt details accurate without oversaturating or distorting the soft, hand-drawn look).

Denoising Strength (if using Image-to-Image with your face reference): 0.55 to 0.65 (allows enough freedom for the AI to transform the photo into a colored-pencil drawing while strictly preserving facial structure and identity).

Aspect Ratio: 4:5 (vertical portrait format).

Create a highly detailed, artistic colored-pencil illustration of a woman sitting at a wooden table, peacefully writing on a large cream-colored sheet of paper. Use the uploaded image strictly and only for accurate face matching and identity reference. Preserve the subject’s exact facial features, proportions, and overall identity. No identity change or facial alteration.

She has a natural skin tone with detailed, realistic skin texture, soft facial features, and long hair styled in neatly with loose strands framing her face. Her head is gently tilted downward as she looks at what she is writing, with a subtle, closed-lip, gentle smile.

She is wearing an oversized chunky knitted sweater in a soft dusty lavender tone, with highly detailed wool texture and thick knitted patterns. Her left hand rests naturally on the paper while her right hand holds a dark teal-blue colored pencil, actively writing delicate handwritten lines.

The table is covered with numerous scattered colored pencils in red, orange, yellow, green, teal, blue, purple, brown, black, and pink, creating a rich artistic workspace. Include realistic pencil wood texture, sharpened tips, subtle scratches, and natural overlapping arrangements. A small metal pencil cup filled with colored pencils sits on the lower left, while a clear glass vase containing soft peach, cream, and coral roses is positioned on the right side.

The background is a warm off-white textured paper with a large soft charcoal-gray shaded area, hand-drawn graphite/pencil backdrop. Use subtle paper grain throughout the scene.

Art style: highly detailed colored-pencil drawing, realistic hand-drawn illustration, fine cross-hatching, delicate pencil strokes, layered color-pencil shading, visible paper texture, natural imperfections, soft blended tones, realistic anatomy and proportions, sophisticated editorial illustration aesthetic.

Lighting: soft warm natural window light, gentle highlights on the woman's face and sweater, subtle shadows, cozy peaceful atmosphere, balanced exposure.

Composition: vertical portrait, medium shot, woman centered slightly above the middle, table and scattered pencils filling the lower foreground, slightly elevated perspective, harmonious visual balance, strong foreground depth.

Technical details: ultra-detailed, 8K quality, crisp pencil strokes, realistic skin texture translated into colored-pencil shading, detailed hair strands, highly textured sweater, natural shadows, cinematic depth, vibrant, rich color palette, 4:5 aspect ratio.

It looks like you mentioned an "uploaded image" for face matching and identity reference, but no image was attached or uploaded to this chat.

Could you please upload the reference image you would like me to use? Once you provide the image, I can help you with your request or generate the artwork while strictly preserving the subject's exact facial features and identity as requested.

How to use one step per line

To structure a process or a set of instructions one step per line, you simply need to write each step on its own separate line using a numbered list or simple line breaks.

Here is how you can format your instructions clearly:

First step goes on its own line.

Second step goes on the next line.

Third step goes on the line below that.

Or, without numbers, using bullet points or simple line breaks:

Step one action

Step two action

Step three action

This layout keeps your instructions scannable, organized, and very easy to follow! Let me know if you would like me to format a specific set of steps for you.
