name: scene-to-art-lab
description: Transform a user-supplied photograph into an original vertical 3:4 art-directed poster using watercolor, pop-art screenprint, expressive painting, ink-wash, relief print, editorial surrealism, or a controlled hybrid. Use when the user asks to reinterpret a real scene, portrait, object, vehicle, landscape, architecture, or travel photo as creative visual art, an exhibition poster, editorial poster, key visual, or unified poster series with source-specific typography, editorial micro-copy, image-title interlocking, and selected identity preservation.

# Scene to Art Lab

Turn a supplied photograph into a deliberately art-directed 3:4 poster rather than a styled photograph. Preserve only the scene features that carry identity, then redesign composition, color, mark, space, graphic structure, and material according to one coherent medium and one poster idea. Do not assume that the whole source image must remain visible or receive equal artistic treatment.

Use image generation for every requested transformation. A supplied image plus a request to transform it is sufficient consent; do not reconfirm. Inspect the image before editing when it is available as a local file.

## Core workflow

1. Read the source image.
2. Choose or infer one primary art mode.
3. Define a concise poster proposition: what the viewer should notice or feel first.
4. Select one poster layout system and redesign the composition for the selected medium and a 3:4 canvas.
5. Write a scene-specific transformation brief containing every mandatory output constraint.
6. Generate the image directly.
7. Inspect the result when possible; revise once if identity, poster hierarchy, layout, edge loss, or medium behavior failed.
8. Return the image with a short Chinese rationale. Provide the full generation prompt only when requested.

If the user names a mode, follow it. If not, infer the strongest match from the source and explain the choice briefly after generation. Ask a question only when two materially different interpretations are equally plausible and the choice cannot be inferred from the request or image.

## Read the source

Create a compact internal Source Map:

- **Identity anchors:** up to three features that must remain recognizable.
- **Spatial logic:** horizon, overlap, pose, perspective, direction, or scale relationship that organizes the scene.
- **Energy:** still, lyrical, graphic, tense, playful, monumental, intimate, or kinetic.
- **Shape hierarchy:** dominant silhouette, secondary masses, and expendable detail.
- **Color opportunity:** colors worth preserving, suppressing, exaggerating, or replacing.
- **Material opportunity:** edges, light, texture, rhythm, or empty space suited to an artistic medium.

Preserve identity through selected relationships, not through indiscriminate detail. For portraits, protect facial identity, expression, pose, and hand count. For products and vehicles, protect proportions, signature graphics, perspective, and enough of the silhouette to remain identifiable unless the user requests distortion. Permit non-defining contours, peripheral bodywork, background objects, and expendable detail to di
