The prompt behind this image
Copy the exact prompt behind Coastal Photo to Pastel Pixel Art, or open it in the studio and make it yours.
Using the provided reference image as a layout and style guide, create a clean before/after comparison showing a real coastal photo transformed into soft healing-color pixel art. Change the subject to {argument name="scene subject" default="a sunny seaside road with orange roadside convex traffic mirrors, blue ocean, and snowy mountains in the distance"}. Layout: use exactly 2 vertical panels side by side — the left panel is the realistic photo source, and the right panel is the pixel-art reconstruction. Keep the split at the center with no border. Left panel: make it a bright, saturated real-photo coastal landscape with blue sky, large white clouds, turquoise sea, distant snow-covered mountains, a low concrete seawall, and orange roadside mirror poles. Include 2 visible convex mirrors: 1 full round mirror near the left-center edge and 1 partial cropped round mirror at the far left edge. Right panel: reinterpret the left panel as low-resolution pixel art with large square blocks, pastel blue, cream, peach, lavender, and mint tones, airy negative space, and a calm therapeutic palette. Include exactly 2 full circular convex mirrors on one orange pole near the lower center-left, with the ocean, mountains, clouds, seawall, and small water highlights simplified into pixel blocks. Add decorative pixel details only on the right panel: dotted halftone squares, tiny pastel square accents, a small sparkle/star icon, and exactly 3 small heart icons stacked vertically near the upper-right area. Add small pixel text at the lower-left of the right panel reading {argument name="caption text" default="WIND FROM\nTHE SEA\nCARRIES LIGHT."}. Use a wide horizontal canvas, crisp pixel edges on the right, bright daylight, no people, no watermark.
