Structured Nano Banana prompt – watercolor fantasy portrait
Use the exact face and likeness from the reference/input photo only, keeping 100% of the original facial features. Preserve the same skull and bone structure, eye shape and distance, nose shape, mouth and lips, jawline, cheekbones, chin, ears, eyebrows, hairline, skin tone, skin texture and natural expression. Do not beautify, slim, age, de‑age or change proportions of the face. Keep the same gender presentation, ethnicity and overall body type as in the uploaded photo, with the same hairstyle, length, volume and direction of the hair; do not change haircut or color, only adapt the hair to the scene if needed (wind, motion, light).
Transform the portrait into a watercolor fantasy illustration while keeping the person fully recognizable. Use flowing brushstrokes with splash effects around the head and shoulders, as if the figure were painted with liquid watercolor on real paper. Maintain expressive anatomy and correct proportions, but allow some controlled abstraction at the edges of the hair, clothing and background.
Lighting should be soft yet dramatic, with gentle highlights and shadows shaping the face and neck, creating atmospheric depth. Use an earthy, natural color palette (warm browns, soft greens, muted blues and creams), with subtle color bleeding and gradients, as in traditional watercolor. Add elegant blur effects and out‑of‑focus paint splashes to suggest cinematic composition and depth of field.
Apply traditional painting textures: visible watercolor grain, pigment pooling, edge darkening where the water dries, and paper texture subtly visible across the entire image. Balance realism and abstraction so the face and key features stay sharp and realistic, while the background and some parts of the clothing dissolve into loose, abstract washes and splashes. Overall style: hand‑painted fine art look, cinematic yet understated, ultra‑detailed high‑resolution illustration optimized for 4K/8K output.
