Prompt to Convert Travel Photo into a 50/50 Colored-Pencil and Watercolor Poster

Create a premium vertical travel-journal poster in an exact 50/50 split.

Top 50%: Keep the original reference photo completely real and unchanged same composition, architecture, people, colors, lighting, perspective, and details.

Bottom 50%: Transform the same photo into a delicate hand-drawn colored-pencil + watercolor sketch on warm cream paper, with visible pencil strokes, soft washes, subtle paper grain, imperfect outlines, and gentle cross-hatching. Keep every subject recognizable.

Add elegant handwritten text: “A Beautiful Day” above and “Memories to Keep” below. Minimal, nostalgic, sophisticated travel-magazine aesthetic. No extra objects, no photorealism in the bottom half, exact 50/50 layout.

Summary

Split a travel photo exactly in half vertically: keep the top half as the original photo, and transform the bottom half into a hand-drawn colored-pencil and watercolor sketch. Upload one photo that clearly shows architecture, people, or streetscapes, and enter the original text exactly as-is. There are no replacement slots. You can create a nostalgic, elegant travel-magazine–style poster with handwritten text reading “A Beautiful Day” above and “Memories to Keep” below.
