## Prompt

```text
Stylized digital illustration of a young woman with a warm, confident smile, executed in a pen-and-ink cross-hatching style. She has short, wavy {hair_color} hair with prominent blonde face-framing streaks, parted down the middle. Her facial features are rendered with fine stippling and line work, highlighting her expressive eyes, light freckles, and a friendly grin. She wears a {shirt_color} textured t-shirt, a delicate necklace, hoop earrings, and thin rings on her fingers, with one hand resting gently under her chin. The background is a solid, dense black cross-hatched texture that makes the subject pop, giving the piece a classic graphic novel or hand-drawn editorial aesthetic.
