Description
Ideal for turning everyday photos into a one-page personal notebook illustration: a journal spread, independent publication, or small exhibition piece. The upper half keeps the original photo recognizable; the lower half retains only the silhouette, personality, and expression, drawing the subject small with relaxed, broken ink lines and a touch of thin watercolor. Leave plenty of white space rather than filling the page, allowing pauses in the drawing and edges that remain open. Take two to four colors from the original image—light, thin, and restrained, but precise. Keep the text small and understated, placed in the corners of the open space. Avoid filling the page, smooth digital polish, a plastic look, fluorescent colors, and commercial-style titles.

For turning everyday photos into the kind of handmade paper piece you might find in an independent bookstore, design museum shop, or small art market: personal photo curation, independent publishing, exhibition exercises, and lifestyle brands. The upper half preserves a recognizable version of the original photo; the lower half does not apply a paper-cut filter, but removes irrelevant information and reworks it into a small paper-art object using naive hand-drawing, paper-cut color blocks, rough geometric shapes, and a few simple lines. The overall look is clean, friendly, optimistic, relaxed, and slightly quirky: a medium-to-small scale, generous warm-white space, matte paper and Risograph grain, and 2–3 spot colors sampled from the original image. Avoid realistic illustration, smooth vector graphics, a glossy 3D plastic feel, complex backgrounds, commercial packaging, children's craft-class aesthetics, and templated brand design.
GPT2 x New Folk Art
Ideal for turning everyday photos into quiet, nostalgic illustrated vignettes with a contemporary folk-art sensibility—for organizing personal photography, independent publishing, exhibition studies, and lifestyle brands. The upper half preserves the original image's recognizability; the lower half does not simply apply a filter, but retains only the most identifiable shapes and relationships, reworking a beautiful moment with rounded, simplified forms, powdery gouache, and an abundance of negative space. The overall result is quiet, intimate, poetic, restrained, warm, and nostalgic: small-scale subjects, generous negative space, powder blue and ivory, botanical green, and small touches of coral red. Avoid densely filled realism, high saturation, fluorescent colors, a slick digital look, plasticity, and piles of commercial-style headlines.
GPT2 x Negative Monument
For turning everyday photos into minimalist independent-publication illustrations: exhibition studies, personal photography projects, and literary visuals. The upper half retains a recognizable version of the original photo; the lower half does not depict the subject, but instead builds a field of dense, slightly shaky, broken horizontal strokes, leaving the subject as a huge, quiet expanse of negative space. A tiny, naïve figure contrasts with, passes through, or accompanies this monument. Use no more than three colors: a warm white paper ground, one soft, bright ink color drawn from the source image, and black. The image must use flat graphic forms while retaining paper texture and slight misregistration. Avoid volumetric rendering, gradients, shadows, smooth digital rendering, and flashy multicolor treatments.
