FAQ
- Why does the prompt fix exactly twenty-one water lilies with those exact counts and locations?
- The breakdown of four open plus two buds lower-left, three near center reeds, five small open mid-right, and seven lower-right creates deliberate visual balance across the foreground without crowding the heron or willow.
- How does the heron's reflection contribute to the overall scene?
- Its clear dark reflection in the still water directly reinforces the mood of calmness and quiet reflection while echoing the impressionist handling of light and delicate surface details.
