Autumn River Bend in Japanese-Inspired Woodblock Style
woodblock style · autumn river · red maples · landscape print
Render an autumn scene as a single woodblock-style landscape in a 16:9 format for a wide gallery print. A broad river curves around a low island of red maples, with dark pine branches entering from the upper left and distant hills fading into blue-gray layers. Use flat areas of muted vermilion, ochre, indigo, and warm ivory, supported by deliberate carved contours and subtle woodgrain texture. Small ripples should follow the river bend, guiding the eye toward the far bank. Keep the scene grounded in seasonal landscape observation rather than decorative symbols. Allow the sky to remain spacious, and use selective irregularities in ink coverage to evoke a carefully printed handmade surface.
