## About this style

Even fine ink lines organize folds and terrain through long open arcs, with restrained ochre-red, mineral-green and ivory washes. Full gentle forms favor contour rhythm over minute realism.

Tang-inspired light-color gongbi is a contemporary interpretation rather than a universal description of Tang painting.

Long rounded sleeve lines and restrained color deepening near folds can suggest calm, generous form.

### How the style changes different subjects

- **Portrait**: Careful outlines and color layers emphasize garments, folds and composed facial expression.

- **Landscape**: Ordered contours and color planes separate rocks, trees and buildings into decorative spatial layers.

- **Object**: Fine contours and controlled color clarify vessels and plants while restraining reflective effects.

**Subjects**: Choose figures with readable clothing folds, flowers and birds, layered rocks or fine vessels with room for detail.

### Variant relationship

Compared with densely outlined Gongbi, this interpretation reduces tiny lines and deep modeling, emphasizing long drapery arcs, open contours and quieter ochre-green color layers. Existing clothing is retained; drawing choices carry the period-inspired character.

## Reusable style prompt

```text
Keep the original identity, clothing structure, pose and scene arrangement. Make a Tang-inspired gongbi color interpretation with fine even dark-umber contours, long open arc-shaped fold lines and generous calm silhouettes. Simplify tiny texture into soft ochre-red, mineral-green, pale blue and ivory color layers on a quiet silk-like ground. Use mild value differences and a gently full contour rhythm, never dense photographic shading. Let architecture and objects share the same elongated line and thin-color grammar. Do not replace the clothes with historical costume, add palace buildings, accessories, Buddhist imagery, seals, inscriptions or decorative borders.
