Your prompt
Mixed-media portrait of [SUBJECT], [EXPRESSION], [GAZE DIRECTION], with [ACCESSORY/STYLING], realistic identity, black sketch strokes, torn newspaper collage, acrylic paint splashes, editorial print texture, blending realism and abstract expressionism, premium poster aesthetic, tactile handmade feel, high contrast, ultra-detailed face and eyes, [PRIMARY COLORS] and [SECONDARY COLORS]
When to use it
Use when a portrait needs to look hand-made and editorial, for a music poster, a magazine cover or a wall print.
How to get the best result
- Give the sitter an age, gender and one distinguishing feature; the realistic identity has to survive under the paint.
- Keep the expression and gaze to a word or two each; the prompt is a comma-separated keyword list, so sentences get lost.
- Pick two color families under the advanced toggle that contrast with the fixed newsprint gray and black strokes.
Watch-outs
- Nano Banana cannot hold a real person's likeness from a name alone; attach a reference photo to every request.
- Mood words like edgy vanish in a keyword list; Nano Banana renders concrete nouns, so name an actual accessory instead.
