Style Spectrum: From Realism to Flat Illustration with the Same Subject

Using the same subject as an anchor, run a "style spectrum" experiment with nano-banana's image editing capabilities: first establish the character and composition from a reference image, then use natural language instructions to push the image successively toward realistic thick paint, semi-realism, flat vector, and minimalist flat, and finally output a 16:9 widescreen comparison. The creative focus is verifying the consistency of the same subject across multiple rounds of editing, as well as fine-grained control of texture, lighting, and brushwork through natural language. Suitable for illustration style exploration, character design sheets, and rapid prototyping of visual style boards.

An artistic style spectrum study: a seated female character presented in a 16:9 widescreen composition, drawn in a layered tonal illustration style between realistic rendering and flat vector art. Delicate painterly skin gradients, soft directional light from the upper left, a restrained palette of warm ochre, soft teal, and off-white, clean negative space, crisp silhouettes, visible brush texture simplified into flat color blocks in the background. Editorial illustration quality, no text, no watermark.
