Prompt

Accumulate overlapping soft oblong ink dabs into connected tonal masses, leaving open support between larger groups, with clear painted anchors in the large silhouettes and light colour washes in local hues; no regular point grid, random stipple filter or indiscriminate blending. A Himalayan forest slope in morning cloud: steep slopes of dark rhododendron and fir in dense dabs, layers of mist as open paper, scattered pale birch trunks and a few magenta rhododendron blooms, a snow peak faintly visible through a gap above. Light: soft diffuse light behind the cloud, the near slope in dense dark green and blue-black dabs, the middle slopes in sparser grey-green dabs fading into bare paper mist, the magenta blooms as the warm accents and the snow peak as the palest ivory shape; the slope's diagonal leads up to the peak. Palette of ink black, deep green, grey-blue, magenta and ivory; quiet, atmospheric, refined. Wide 16:9 frame. No people, animals, buildings other than the ones named, readable text, signs or logos; prayer flags carry only plain colour blocks, no script.
