FACE MATCH IS THE TOP PRIORITY. This is the exact woman in the attached reference photo - not a lookalike. Copy the reference face feature by feature - hairline, hair, brows, eye shape and spacing, nose, lips, jawline, skin tone - every proportion identical, so anyone who knows her recognises her instantly; do not beautify, broaden or genericise. From the reference keep only the face and hair.

ART: a hand-inked duotone portrait on a pure black field - dense confident hatching and cross-hatching, every stroke visible - the whole image built from exactly TWO neon ink colours plus black. SPLIT LAW: one colour owns the key side of the face, the other owns the fill side, the split falling cleanly along the nose line, deepest shadows left as pure black. The face is drawn with every reference feature and proportion exact, eyes their real size with a single white catchlight left in each, her face held THREE-QUARTER to the viewer, never a full profile, the face the brightest element against the black. Colours: royal navy-blue fills the body and near face, hot pink keys the lifted side. Chest-up: a hatched dark suit, white shirt and slim tie inked in clean negative strokes, hands out of frame below the crop. Chin LIFTED a clear degree, the throat line drawn strong. GAZE: eyes raised up and off camera-left toward an unseen light, face held three-quarter, both eyes fully visible under the raised gaze with their white catchlights. Expression: a woman seeing the future she already owns. Vertical 4:5. Only this one person. No text anywhere.

LIGHT LAW: the face is lit only by this scene's own implied light - one consistent direction shading every stroke and plane, never a pasted studio face.

FINAL CHECK: compare the face against the attached reference - the identity must match exactly; if any feature differs from the reference, it is wrong.

How to use this prompt

Provide a reference photo of the woman's face for precise matching. Ensure the likeness is crucial, as the design depends on exact features including hair, eyes, and facial structure. The output will be a vertical 4:5 portrait with a vivid contrast of two colors against black, emphasizing the facial details. If results deviate from the reference, adjustments may be needed in the ink colors or facial proportions.
