Assignment
Create an image with a PASTEL/LOW-CONTRAST palette: all colors should be light-valued (tints) with low saturation. Value range should stay between 60-90% lightness. No dark shadows, no pure blacks.
Criteria: All colors are pastel/light tints. No dark values. No pure black. Low contrast throughout. Palette feels soft and dreamy. Value range is narrow and light.
Intents
- No color in the image will drop below 60% lightness on the HSL scale.
- All palette colors used will have saturation less than 35%.
- No area of the image will use pure black; the darkest color will be a pale gray or pastel blue.
- The composition will avoid any hard or high-contrast edges, ensuring all transitions are soft.
- The overall atmosphere will immediately read as soft, gentle, and dreamy, resembling a hazy morning.
Scene Prompt
A pastel, low-contrast illustration of a sunlit meadow in early spring. The sky is a pale powder blue, almost white at the horizon, with hints of soft blush-pink clouds drifting gently. The meadow is filled with light green grasses and clusters of delicate flowers in muted pastel hues: pale peach, soft lavender, buttery yellow, and mint. Distant trees are rendered as gentle, fuzzy silhouettes in creamy sage and light blue-greens. The sunlight is diffuse, creating only the subtlest, softest shado

Recommendation
Continue practicing with pastel palettes, perhaps exploring slightly more dynamic compositions or subtle focal points while maintaining the dreamy effect. This is an excellent demonstration of the assignment's core requirements.
