## About this style

Clear ink outlines enclose vermilion, cyan-blue and cream fields. Existing water, foliage and folds become compact ornamental rhythms while the source remains structurally clear.

Graphic Guochao illustration translates inherited color and ornament into contemporary flat organization.

Repeated blue river curves beside red roofs can create a clear decorative rhythm grounded in the scene itself.

### How the style changes different subjects

- **Portrait**: Decorative lines and distinct color emphasize hair, clothing and pose as an illustrated design.

- **Landscape**: Architecture, terrain and plants become layered decorative color planes.

- **Object**: Contours, patterns and selected accents unify the object's visual character.

**Subjects**: Choose distinctive clothing, flowers and birds, architecture or patterned objects with room for both line and color.

## Reusable style prompt

```text
Retain the original subject, clothing and scene arrangement. Redraw as contemporary graphic guochao illustration with crisp moderately weighted dark contours and flat vermilion, cyan-blue, warm cream and restrained gold-ochre fields. Derive decorative wave bands, leaf shapes and curved line rhythms only from water, vegetation, fabric folds or structural panels already present. Keep ornament contained within a few source regions and leave clear breathing space around identifying features. Make color contrasts bold and outlines decisive. Do not add dragons, phoenixes, seals, Chinese text, temples, old-fashioned costume, gold foil, arbitrary cultural emblems or dense all-over pattern.
