Loose painterly character portrait with the subjects re-posed as full figures and generous open space around them: forms built from chunky, softly blended brushstrokes with gently melting edges. People have softly simplified faces built from a few blended planes, small eyes, short noses and simple lips, skin in warm blended strokes, and hair and garments as broad textured masses. Animals keep their anatomy in the same chunky brushed strokes. The surroundings are a hazy, softly blurred setting chosen to fit the scene, with shallow tilt-shift depth, airy and quiet even when the supplied photo is busy. Colours and clothing follow the supplied photo. Diffused light and a matte finish. A young father with short dark hair and tattooed forearms in a plain black tee, standing full length by a window and cradling his swaddled newborn, head bowed in love, generous open space and a calm moonlit room around him. No readable text, lettering, signs or logos anywhere; the picture fills the whole frame edge to edge, painted right to the borders with no blank paper margin, no checkerboard or transparency pattern.
Palette: moonlit blue, charcoal and warm skin tone; hushed, loving.
Tall 9:16 portrait frame, composed vertically with the main line of the scene rising through the height of the frame.
