Whimsical and Dreamlike Surreal Illustrations

Transform the uploaded image into a surreal illustration with a whimsical, dream‑like vibe. • Color palette: muted tones (soft greens, browns, greys) with occasional gentle pops of green. • Lighting: soft, diffused, almost ethereal light that blends gradients and subtle highlights. • Texture & medium feel: oil‑painting‑like brushstrokes, faint watercolor washes, or loose hand‑drawn linework, with a slight grainy texture. • Mood & composition: exaggerated, expressive features (e.g., elongated faces or emotive eyes) characteristic of cartoonish or Muppet‑style illustrations, but applied in a surreal, slightly fantastical context. • Overall aesthetic: blend realistic attention to detail with a touch of surreal whimsy—think serene, slightly uncanny atmosphere.
