## About this style

Fine ink and simple vermilion-green coloring organize contours. Existing leaves, water and folds become repeated flat curves while the subject stays clear.

Folk line-and-color ornament develops repeated motifs from the underlying form.

Parallel red-green garment curves echoed by leaves at a cuff can make decoration feel structurally connected rather than applied at random.

### How the style changes different subjects

- **Portrait**: Rhythmic patterns flatten hair and clothing while retaining the readable pose.

- **Landscape**: Plants and buildings become repeated motifs within a decorative field.

- **Object**: Botanical, linear or geometric patterns fill object contours instead of literal materials.

**Subjects**: Choose flowers, birds, foliage, clothed figures or simple vessels with contours strong enough to contain pattern.

## Reusable style prompt

```text
Keep the source identifying forms, pose and arrangement. Translate it into a decorative folk line-and-color illustration using clear fine black ink contours, flat vermilion, leaf green, cream and a little ochre. Repeat small dots, curved arcs and simplified leaf marks within existing foliage, folds and component panels. Let the ornament follow structure rather than hiding it; keep faces and key features uncluttered. Flatten light and shade into a few color regions. Do not invent a specific ethnic costume, religious emblem, dragons, paper-cut holes, gold foil, calligraphy or unrelated folk props.
