Oil Painting Prompt: Generate a highly detailed digital portrait based on the uploaded photo. Preserve full likeness and facial structure while enhancing features with smooth, warm-toned skin, symmetrical detailing, and soft glow highlights on the forehead and cheeks. Apply a realistic yet polished illustration style with glossy skin texture, sharp, expressive eyes, and natural hair detail. Add cinematic soft lighting for depth. Create a vibrant, dreamy background with softly swirling gradient colours in green, purple and orange tones, slightly blurred to keep focus on the subject. Use studio portrait composition, centred framing, high resolution, refined brush strokes, realistic hair texture, and 8K ultra-quality artistic digital painting finish.9:16 aspect ratio
Creator's tips
🔥 Creator Tip: For a premium oil-painting portrait, prioritize facial likeness over skin smoothing. Face lock: Use a clear, front-facing reference photo and preserve the exact facial structure, eyes, nose, lips, and hairstyle. Painting style: Combine realistic brush strokes with subtle glossy highlights instead of making the skin look plastic. Background: Blend green, purple, and orange into soft swirling gradients, keeping the face as the main focus. Lighting: Add warm highlights on the forehead and cheeks with soft shadows for depth. Pro move: Keep the eyes and hair sharply detailed, with painterly textures around the edges for an authentic digital oil-painting finish.
