Prompt
Fit separately shaped solid-wood pieces in shallow relief, varying grain and elevation, planes blending smoothly, seams fitted; a colour boundary need not change height; no flat veneer or uninterrupted carved grain field. Resemblance in big shapes only: silhouette, proportions, large piece areas. Subjects may be re-posed to suit the style. Below fingertip scale use only wood grain and seams. Any eyes or nose are shaped pieces with one polished highlight. Grain texture shows everywhere. Eye and coat colours become distinct values; the palette cannot hold every hue. No photographic detail, crisp strands or glossy eye reflections. A carved wooden flag hangs on a farmhouse wall with stripes as grooved planks and a canton as a star carved panel painted blue. A rocker creaks empty below it in the afternoon quiet. No lettering.
Light: warm farmhouse afternoon; palette of plank brown, paint navy and plaster cream; sturdy, plain, true.
Wide 16:9 frame. The standard flag shows exactly thirteen horizontal stripes starting and ending with red and a blue canton with star rows in the upper hoist corner; any interpretive flag stays recognisable and is never torn, burned, defaced or on the ground. No readable text, lettering, slogans or logos anywhere; any people are fictional fully clothed adults with clearly adult proportions and faces.
