## About this style

A vertical tear separates broad paper whitespace from a colored-paper world inside. Curled edges and fiber shadows reveal the sheet’s thickness, while a few crossing forms strengthen the sense of discovery.

A paper reveal frames viewing as opening a surface onto another space.

A colored street appearing through a tear becomes convincing when curled edges cast small shadows onto the scene beneath.

### How the style changes different subjects

- **Portrait**: The figure appears through a torn opening, contrasting the face with the paper edge.

- **Landscape**: A landscape seems hidden behind the surface, with the opening defining visible space.

- **Object**: An object becomes the revealed focal point behind paper and its cast shadow.

**Subjects**: Choose centered portraits, isolated landmarks or single products with key features inside the reveal.

## Reusable style prompt

```text
Organize the image around one striking, irregular vertical tear. Inside it, reshape the subject with simplified contours, geometric color blocks, and layered paper pieces, allowing a few key forms to extend slightly beyond the torn edge. Keep paper grain, fuzzy fibers, curling edges, stacked thickness, and soft shadows visible. Distill the subject's colors into a few clean core hues. Leave extensive warm-white paper outside, using inner-outer contrasts of density and definition to emphasize the act of revealing.
