Create an image around any theme object with a minimalist and memorable point: let the real tools, objects, or symbols derived from the theme be placed centrally in the composition, with a close-up, tangible texture, becoming the axis and the first visual anchor of the entire face-like structure; it is both a functional object and the most critical vertical symbol among the五官, supporting the dark covering layer upwards and pressing into a light-colored main surface brushed roughly. The edges of the main surface retain hand-brushed marks, exposed base, uneven thickness, and unrefined boundaries. The facial features or expressions are completed with only a few black hand-drawn lines, with eyes, eyebrows, and curves to look like on-the-spot scribbling rather than refined illustrations. The top dark block presses down heavily, roughly, almost like a silhouette, forming a comical yet solemn hat brim-like weight; at the bottom, the theme name or short sentence can be added, using a strong, flowing, and fast handwriting to make the text look like a signature and become a part of the composition. The color is extracted from the theme's own material, emotion, and narrative, retaining a large area of warm background, light-colored roughly brushed main surface, dark structural blocks, a small amount of high saturation accent colors, and worn texture colors in terms of area order; the overall should have a warm, dramatic, handcrafted humorous mood, clear light and dark contrast, and the accent colors are concentrated on the axis without spreading into decoration. The final effect should be like a graphic portrait composed of physical collage, rough oil paint, and handwritten traces, simple, direct, and human, avoiding becoming a common cartoon avatar or neat commercial illustration.
For the cover of a director's retrospective exhibition, the main colors are indigo black and chalk white, with rust orange accent colors concentrated on the facial axis; the main object is pressed in the center of the lower part of the image, with the dark block sinking down in a large area to form a dramatic weight, the title spanning above but with spacious letter spacing, the signature reduced and close to the lower right, and the format is vertical 3:4.
