The prompt
PROMPT · EN
Transform the uploaded photo into a clean mixed-media portrait. Keep the person exactly the same as the original photo: preserve the same face, identity, hairstyle, expression, skin tone, outfit, pose, body proportions, and camera angle. Keep all people fully photorealistic. Change only the background and surrounding environment into a stylish hand-drawn colored pencil and wax crayon sketch on warm ivory textured paper. Use vivid yet harmonious colors, visible pencil strokes, playful hand-drawn details, and a charming Pinterest-style illustration aesthetic. Preserve the original composition and scene layout. Create a beautiful contrast between the realistic subjects and the illustrated background. No changes to people, no extra people, no distorted faces or limbs, no text, no logo, no watermark.
Paste it in English exactly as written. It works best that way, even if you chat in another language.

Tips for the best result
- Choose a sharp photo where the people stand out from the background. Trees, flowers, buildings, and sky give the sketch more detail.
- Check faces, hair, outfits, hands, and poses after generation. If anything changes, ask ChatGPT to restore that detail from the original photo and keep all people photorealistic.
- For a more playful finish, ask for thicker wax crayon strokes and small hand-drawn hearts, stars, or clouds in the background.
- Ask to preserve the original composition and scene layout. For a feed-friendly portrait, try a 3:4 or 4:5 crop.
