## Prompt

```text
Goal: Create a vertical 3:4 comparison image showing a warm original-photo scene on top and its cozy crayon-drawing interpretation on the bottom.

Canvas: Vertical image, approximately 900 x 1200 px, split into exactly 2 horizontal panels of equal width. The top panel is a soft, sunlit realistic photo; the bottom panel is an off-white paper illustration with wax-crayon texture.

Top panel: Show {character_description} sitting sideways on a narrow old balcony railing outside a weathered apartment doorway. She is relaxed and slightly introspective, looking down at an acoustic guitar while playing it. She wears {outfit}. The guitar is a glossy honey-brown acoustic cutaway guitar with a dark tortoiseshell pickguard. Include iron balcony bars, leafy green vines, a cream stucco wall, an open aged door, and a dim interior room in the background. Use golden late-afternoon sunlight with dappled leaf shadows across her legs, guitar, wall, and floor; dreamy lens softness, cozy summer atmosphere, shallow depth of field.

Bottom panel: Recreate the same subject as a loose hand-drawn crayon sketch on textured cream paper. The woman, pose, guitar, balcony railing, and shoes should be simplified but recognizable, drawn with sketchy overlapping crayon strokes in warm yellow, teal blue, coral red, green, and charcoal gray. Keep the style childlike yet stylish, soft and cozy, with visible wax grain and imperfect outlines. Add exactly 7 decorative crayon elements around the main figure: 1 simple yellow sun in the upper left, 2 small yellow flowers on green stems on the left, 1 blue musical note near the center-right, 1 short gray handwritten phrase reading {quote_text}, and 2 small yellow flowers on green stems in the lower right. Add a few loose green and blue ground scribbles below the seated figure.

Text and branding: The only readable phrase inside the drawing is {quote_text}, set in a small gray typewriter-like handwritten style to the right of the illustrated guitar player. Add a subtle white watermark reading {watermark_text} in the bottom-right corner.

Constraints: Use exactly 2 panels, with the top photorealistic and the bottom crayon-drawn. Do not add extra people, extra guitars, or additional readable text. Preserve the warm sunny mood and the cozy hand-crafted crayon aesthetic.
