thatched hut digital-painting study

Tags
Recreate the reference as a vertical 2:3 digital-painting that preserves composition, framing, and crop guidance for a poster-cover format. The main subject is one small thatched hut that fills roughly the lower half of the frame and sits slightly below center, with the door centered and windows left-center and center-right; two palm trees rise in the upper left third and upper right third respectively and vegetation clusters occupy the lower left and lower right thirds. Render hand-drawn black ink linework with loose sketch strokes defining the roof thatch, stone bench, and foliage while keeping visible pen hatching around the hut walls. The door and two window panes emit a warm yellow interior glow that casts elongated organic stepping-stone reflections across the ground toward the lower center, forming five distinct light ovals leading out of the door. Use a muted warm-brown paper tone for the background that covers approximately the full frame with shallow perceived depth and no detailed horizon, keeping background texture subtle and uniform. Lighting should be low-key overall with the warm interior glow as the sole light source producing soft-edged shadows and a gentle falloff across foreground plants. Preserve a sketch-paper texture and slightly irregular line weights so the image reads as an expressive ink-and-marker study with consistent vertical crop and centered doorway.
