## Prompt

```text
Create a serene painterly landscape illustration of a quiet misty lake at sunrise, inspired by the phrase {quote}. Use a wide horizontal canvas with soft oil-painting brushwork and pastel colors. The sun is low near the center horizon, glowing through peach, coral, lavender, and pale blue clouds, with its warm reflection stretching across glassy water. In the mid-right foreground, place one elegant blue-gray heron standing in shallow water among reeds, facing left, with a long neck, dark crown stripe, orange beak, thin legs, and a clear mirrored reflection below it. Surround the bird with lily pads and exactly 17 visible water lilies: 4 blossoms clustered in the lower-left foreground, 6 blossoms spread across the right foreground around the heron, 5 small blossoms across the mid-right water near the reeds, and 2 blossoms near the central lily pads. On the right bank, include a graceful weeping tree with drooping branches covered in pale pink blossoms, partially reflected in the lake. Add distant tree silhouettes and low blue-gray morning mist along the far shore. The mood should be meditative, silent, and poetic, with no people, no buildings, no typography, no frame, and no watermark. Emphasize soft atmospheric depth, gentle ripples, luminous reflections, and a tranquil color palette of {sky_colors}, {flower_color}, and {water_color}.
```
