FINAL ART DIRECTION

The top half should feel like a beautiful, authentic editorial photograph.

The bottom half should feel like a small, handmade visual poem derived from that photograph.

The two halves should clearly belong to the same visual story, while maintaining a strong contrast between photographic realism above and minimal handmade illustration below.

Prioritize recognition, restraint, negative space, material texture, subtle imperfection, editorial sophistication, and artistic storytelling over decorative complexity.
