Fantasy Art — Side-by-Side Results
Prompt
"Fantasy art illustration of a 20s woman with long wavy auburn hair in a comfy oversized hoodie and leggings, holding a phone at arm’s length for a casual selfie while looking near the camera with a relaxed half-smile. She’s in a cozy modern café, but outside the window an enchanted forest glows and a small dragon perches on the streetlamp; her latte swirls with faint runes and soft magical light, mixing with natural morning window lighting like an Instagram story. Candid, everyday influencer vibe (slightly messy table, tote bag on chair), handheld phone-camera feel with subtle motion blur and realistic framing."
