Open-scumble oil pastel

Lightly deposited waxy color loops and broken strokes overlap without fully filling the support, creating a porous rather than creamy dense surface.

Style ID

Style prompt

Use oil pastel in open scumbled loops and broken waxy strokes, leaving irregular support gaps between deposits. Let overlapping source-related marks model form without fully filling or polishing the surface. Resemblance sits in big shapes: silhouette and large scumbles; below fingertip scale everything is waxy loops, strokes and support gaps. Subjects may be re-posed to suit the style. Eyes and nose, if present, are scumbled wax marks with one wax highlight. Texture is visible everywhere. No soft chalk dust, smooth paint blend or uniform decorative scribble overlay; no photographic patches, crisp strands or glossy eye reflections.

Prompt for this image

Create a new image entirely in the style of image 1: the same medium, materials, technique, rendering and character design (how it builds faces, eyes, hair, bodies and proportions). Do not copy its color palette or its environment; colors and setting follow the direction at the end. Its subjects are the two people and the dog from image 2: keep their hair, clothing colors, the dog's coat, their pose, expression and the direction they look, and the cafe table with cups. Every part of them is made in the style of image 1, faces, hands, clothes and the dog included; nothing photographic remains. Square 1:1 composition; do not copy image 1's people, objects or scene. Direction: whole-scene oil-pastel painting of the cafe terrace from image 2, no signs, soft morning light, an apricot-pink wall, cool teal and rose shadows on the paving, olive and ivy in fresh greens, short layered scumbled pastel strokes with open gaps where the paper shows, strongly visible stroke direction. Keep their real clothing colors from image 2 (cream cardigan, blue jeans, olive overshirt, white tee, beige chinos, white sneakers). No text, letters, captions, banners, signs, swatches, color chips or decorative rules anywhere in the image. The artwork and any border finish completely inside the frame; nothing is cropped or overflows the edges.
