How to use it
It was shared as a GPT Image 2 prompt. Swap the woman's outfit, hair or pose to make the figure your own, but keep the scratch-pen linework and ivory paper description, since those carry the whole look. The background crowd and canal details can be trimmed or replaced with another city setting. The result suits a character illustration, a poster or a calm sketchbook-style print.
