Description
Turn an ordinary photo into a quiet little graphic on blank paper. The upper half shows the original photo; the lower half contains just a tiny picture-book-style mark, with loose lines and slightly clumsy shapes, plus matte gouache, crayon grain, and handmade-paper texture. Keep the blank space much larger than the graphic, with the subject resting quietly on a warm white paper surface and text resembling a journal margin note. Use low-stimulation colors that feel absorbed into the paper, such as powder blue, warm ivory, gray-green, soft coral, ochre, and pale yellow. Avoid filling the background, oversized subjects, commercial logos, standard cute styles, smooth vector graphics, perfect symmetry, 3D, and a plastic look.

Night Crayon xiaoxiaodong P274
Ideal for turning an ordinary photo into a small, childhood-style emblem that glows against black paper. Extract the subject’s most recognizable outline, action, structural, or emotional features and compress them into an extremely simple, memorable visual symbol without retaining the full scene. Use black or dark paper as negative space, with colorful crayon-, pastel-, or oil-pastel-like lines forming the subject. Preserve slight wobble, breaks, repeated strokes, and variations in hand pressure. Use a small selection of bright yet soft candy colors—pink, coral, lavender, powder blue, mint green, and warm yellow—like scattered points of light and crayon fragments illuminating the black background. Keep the composition focused on a single subject with generous black space and a clear visual center. Avoid complete illustrations, realistic people, commercial cartoon logos, 3D effects, and smooth vectors.
Cultural Silhouette｜xiaoxiaodong P278
Turn an ordinary photo into a cultural emblem with a collectible feel. The upper half shows the original photo; the lower half compresses the subject into a memorable miniature identity system. Geometric simplification, paper-cut collage, flat color blocks, and symbolic forms create an abstract graphic reminiscent of a cultural institution mark, art badge, or design studio logo. The subject resembles a carefully designed miniature cultural seal, centered or slightly offset with clean space around it. Large areas of solid color, clear contours, and a few internal structure lines preserve a simulated print texture inspired by screen printing, Riso overprint misalignment, and uneven ink coverage. The palette uses warm ivory and beige paper as the background, with forest green, cobalt blue, soft yellow, and coral red shaping the subject. Avoid complex scenes, cartoon characters, commercial logo templates, and sleek corporate vector styling.
Pastel Totem | xiaoxiaodong P286
Turn an ordinary photo into a dreamlike symbol belonging to one person. The top half shows the original image; the bottom half distills the subject into a light, slightly naïve, slightly strange personal totem, with imperfect lines and screen-print texture. A few stars, ribbons, or small objects may surround it, but they should support one central symbol, with clean negative space around it. Text should read like a small note in a fashion magazine. The palette includes dusty rose, misty blue, cream, mint, soft purple, and peach—light without becoming overly sweet. Avoid cluttered scenes, commercial icons, 3D, smooth vector art, template logos, and cartoon characters.
