Goal
Transform Input Image 1, a real-life street-fashion photograph, into a refined hand-painted watercolour fashion poster inspired by the visual style and presentation of Input Image 2.
References
Input Image 1 — Subject, Clothing & Composition Reference: Use this as the primary reference for the person, face, hairstyle, clothing, accessories, pose, body proportions, utility pole, sidewalk, curb, and other immediate foreground elements.
Input Image 2 — Watercolour Style & Presentation Reference: Use this as the primary reference for the watercolour medium, loose brushwork, pigment washes, paper texture, simplified environment, warm-white background, negative space, and editorial fashion-poster aesthetic.
Subject Preservation
Preserve the person from Input Image 1 as faithfully as possible.
Keep:
the same person and facial features
the same hairstyle and hair colour
the same black/dark baseball cap
the same grey furry ear-flap hood framing the head
the same black oversized bomber jacket
the same white collared shirt
the same patterned tie
the same very loose, oversized beige/cream cargo trousers
the same belt and belt details
the same small brown waist pouch
the same chain accessory attached to the trousers
the same chunky black shoes
all visible clothing details, seams, pockets, folds, distressing, textures, and proportions
Preserve the person's original body proportions, height, silhouette, posture, head angle, facial expression, arm position, hand position, leg position, and stance.
The person should remain standing and leaning naturally against the utility pole, exactly as in Input Image 1.
Do not redesign the outfit or reinterpret the fashion styling.
Environment Preservation
Retain the immediate foreground environment from Input Image 1, especially:
the large concrete utility pole directly behind the person
the pole's visible hardware and attached components
the yellow/black markings on the lower part of the pole
the curb
the immediate sidewalk
the road edge
nearby pavement details and drainage covers
These elements should remain recognizable but should be converted into the same hand-painted watercolour medium as the person.
Background Transformation
Remove the distant urban background, including:
large building façades
distant walls
unnecessary architectural details
distant pedestrians
distracting street objects
photographic background clutter
Replace these areas with a clean warm-white / slightly ivory textured-paper background, matching the spacious background of Input Image 2.
Do not create a completely empty cut-out. Allow the immediate pavement, curb, and utility pole to remain around the character so that the subject still feels naturally grounded in the original location.
The transition from the retained foreground environment into the warm-white paper background should be soft, irregular, and painterly, rather than a hard photographic cutout.
Watercolour Treatment
Convert the entire preserved subject and foreground environment into a genuine traditional watercolour painting.
Match the visual language of Input Image 2:
transparent watercolour washes
layered translucent pigments
loose expressive brushstrokes
visible paper grain
irregular pigment edges
subtle colour bleeding
dry-brush marks
broken brush textures
delicate sketch-like contours
simplified but recognizable forms
naturally uneven pigment density
soft transitions between light and shadow
restrained, slightly muted colours
handmade editorial illustration quality
The result should look like an artist physically painted the photograph onto textured watercolour paper, not like a digital photograph with a generic watercolour filter.
Maintain enough detail to clearly recognize the person's distinctive clothing and accessories, while allowing edges and textures to become naturally painterly.
Colour Treatment
Preserve the characteristic colours of Input Image 1:
deep black/dark charcoal bomber jacket
dark cap
cool grey furry hood
white shirt
brown patterned tie
pale beige/cream cargo trousers
warm brown leather pouch
silver-toned chain
black shoes
muted grey concrete
subdued yellow/black markings on the pole
grey pavement
Translate these colours into slightly desaturated watercolour pigments with natural variations in wash intensity.
Keep the black clothing visibly dark, but use layered charcoal, grey, blue-black, and brownish pigment variations rather than a completely flat black fill.
Lighting & Shadows
Retain the basic lighting direction and tonal relationships of the original photograph, but reinterpret them as soft watercolour shading.
Use:
translucent shadows
subtle pigment pooling
gentle tonal variation
soft-edged highlights
occasional areas of exposed paper
Avoid glossy photographic highlights, artificial 3D rendering, or hyper-realistic lighting.
Composition
Create a vertical fashion-poster composition.
Keep the person's full body visible, including both shoes, while maintaining approximately the same overall framing and body scale as Input Image 1.
Place the figure prominently in the central area of the poster.
Allow generous warm-white negative space around the upper and outer areas of the composition, similar to Input Image 2.
The retained pavement and curb can extend loosely toward the lower edges of the image, but they should gradually dissolve into the paper background through expressive watercolour washes.
Visual Style
The final image should resemble a contemporary editorial fashion illustration painted traditionally with watercolour on textured paper.
It should combine:
accurate fashion photography composition + faithful clothing preservation + expressive hand-painted watercolour + minimalist poster composition.
The image should feel sophisticated, artistic, slightly raw, and handmade rather than polished like commercial digital artwork.
Important Constraints
Change the medium and distant background, but preserve the subject and essential foreground composition.
Do not:
change the person's identity
change the face
change the hairstyle
change the cap
change the furry hood
change the jacket
change the shirt
change the tie
change the trousers
change the pouch
change the chain
change the shoes
change the clothing colours
change the clothing proportions
change the body proportions
change the pose
change the stance
change the head direction
change the position of the arms or hands
change the position of the legs or feet
remove the utility pole
remove the immediate curb or pavement
redesign the outfit
add clothing or accessories
add people
add decorative objects
add text
add captions
add logos
add borders
add watermarks
make the result photorealistic
turn the person into an anime, cartoon, comic, or 3D character
Most importantly: preserve the original fashion styling, silhouette, pose, and recognizable foreground objects from Input Image 1 while replacing the distant photographic environment with clean warm-white watercolour-paper space.
Final Output
A vertical premium watercolour fashion poster, PNG format, with the real-life photograph faithfully transformed into a hand-painted editorial illustration inspired by Input Image 2.
