Prompt

A soft pastel drawing of a seated figure on toned paper. The figure is modelled with chalky directional strokes that let the paper grain show through, the face simplified almost to a mask with no detailed features, hands blocked in as shapes. Behind them, large flowing organic colour shapes in mint green, coral and lilac overlap without outlines. Matte chalk texture throughout, no blending to smoothness, visible stroke direction.
