Couple's Keepsake in Two Panels

Facial likeness comes first. Use the attached couple photo only to identify the same two adults, the exact man and the exact woman. Preserve each person's hairline, haircut, hair texture and colour, brows, eye shape and spacing, nose, lips, cheeks, jaw, chin, age, skin tone, distinguishing marks and existing facial hair or its absence. Do not swap, merge, beautify, slim or replace their faces. The reference is an identity source, not a pose or setting template.

Create one finished vertical 9:16 two-panel keepsake. The upper 52 percent is a full-width real photograph; the lower 48 percent is its designed paper-art companion, joined by a clean horizontal seam. Fill the canvas: no black screenshot margins, letterboxing, phone interface or extra panels. There are exactly two people in each panel: the same couple appears once above and once below, four depictions of only two identities.

In the upper photograph: A quiet neighbourhood bus shelter after a shower, with bottle-green tiles, a clean wooden bench and coral bougainvillea beyond the glass side wall. Wet paving catches pale daylight. One open teal umbrella shelters the seated couple near the open edge; its canopy stays above both heads. He wears a soft ivory sweatshirt and dark olive trousers. She wears a dusty-coral cotton kurta and ivory trousers, with a narrow teal dupatta resting below her shoulders. Their clothes are comfortably coordinated, not identical costumes. He sits on the viewer's right and she on the viewer's left, hips supported by the bench and shoulders touching. His right hand holds the umbrella shaft between them at upper-chest height, clear of both faces; his left palm rests on his left knee. She cups one small steel tea tumbler with both hands at her own waist, leaning her upper arm lightly against his. Their feet remain naturally grounded outside the crop. Frame from the waist upward at seated eye height with a natural 65mm perspective. They glance toward each other without turning into profiles, wearing small amused smiles; both eyes of each person remain readable. Broad overcast light from the open front of the shelter reaches both faces. Soft pavement bounce prevents the umbrella from casting dark eye sockets; rain streaks stay behind the couple. Preserve true skin texture, real fabric weight, sharp eyes and natural adult body proportions. Keep the important gesture fully inside this panel rather than cutting hands at the seam.

In the lower panel, use fine graphite contour drawing with transparent teal and coral watercolor, keeping the faces carefully observed and realistically proportioned on clean pale blue-grey cold-press paper. Repeat the precise photographed moment: same left-right positions, face angles, expressions, clothes, hand ownership and props. Do not mirror the couple or invent a second pose. Keep them large in the centre and lower portion, with clean side spaces for lettering; simplify the background instead of reducing the people to tiny figures. Translate texture into drawing, never facial anatomy: no anime eyes, baby faces, generic illustrated lovers or changed skin tone. A few tiny outlined raindrops sit outside the umbrella, while one small hand-drawn heart hangs from the canopy tip. A broken teal puddle line runs beneath the couple, well away from the captions.

Letter only the lower panel, using legible deep charcoal handwriting with open letterforms and restrained flourishes. In the empty left area, print these exact lines from top to bottom: "Bad weather.". In the empty right area, print these exact lines from top to bottom: "Good company.". Quotation marks are instructions, not printed characters. Preserve spelling, punctuation and line order; render each caption once, large enough to read on a phone. Text and doodles must not overlap faces, hair, hands or each other. Leave comfortable outer margins; keep the photograph free of lettering.

Each person has two anatomically plausible arms and hands within each panel; fingers and touching limbs remain distinct, and cropped anatomy continues naturally. Add no bystanders, reflected people, extra limbs, speech bubbles, extra captions, logos, watermarks, dates, numbers or unrelated writing. Match both identities between panels before adding ornament; reduce doodles, never likeness or caption readability, when space is tight.
