The recipe is the style, not the picture. Put your own subject in and the highlighted part of the prompt changes.
A soft pastel night scene: a narrow street of tall houses climbing away from the viewer, drawn in chalky pink, teal and green with every window glowing warm, two small figures standing together at the centre. Nothing sharp anywhere, pastel worked in visible directional strokes over a toned ground, all light coming from the buildings themselves. Romantic and quiet.
