## Prompt

- Model: GPT Image 2

```text
Create a minimalist Japanese-inspired watercolor and ink collage still life on a vertical 3:4 canvas. Use a warm cream handmade washi-paper background with subtle fibers, stains, and light aging marks. Center the composition low-middle with lots of empty space. Depict exactly 14 discrete visible objects: 1 dark blue irregular trapezoid floating above the still life on the left, 1 horizontal black dry-brush ink stroke floating to its right, 1 open cream-paper book with rough torn page edges and fine gray page lines, 1 dark navy rectangular block behind the book, 1 long slate-gray horizontal slab beneath the book, 1 small white shallow bowl on the right, 3 rounded red fruits inside the bowl, 2 small dark blue leaf shapes behind the fruits, and 5 torn rectangular paper scraps along the bottom edge: an off-white torn scrap at far left, a pale mint square, a blue-gray vertical rectangle, a dark gray shadow-like rectangle, and a pale green rectangle at far right. Render everything in soft Japanese watercolor ink wash collage, with muted navy, slate gray, pale green, ivory, and deep red accents, gentle shadows, rough deckled edges, visible brush texture, and asymmetrical wabi-sabi balance. Keep the image quiet, airy, abstract, and handmade; no readable text, no frame, no photorealism, no extra objects.
