Expressive Monochrome Portrait Painting Prompt

Using the attached image as the sole and exact reference for facial features, bone structure, hair, clothing, and accessories — do not alter, beautify, or change any of these elements. Recreate the subject as a monochrome ink and acrylic portrait painting, with loose, expressive, rough brushstrokes and undefined edges, giving a handmade artistic feel rather than a photographic one — in the style of expressive realism painting. Framing: vertical portrait shot from the upper chest to the top of the head, with large empty white negative space surrounding the figure. Pose: head facing forward at a slight angle, both hands raised and gently clasped together beneath the chin, fingers naturally interlaced, shoulders relaxed, calm direct gaze toward the viewer with a thoughtful, serious expression. Lighting: strong dramatic single-source lighting (chiaroscuro/split lighting), sharp contrast between fully lit areas (pure white) and fully shadowed areas (dense black), no soft gray gradients, abrupt direct transition between light and shadow. Technique: visible rough brushstrokes especially in the hair and clothing, undefined rough edges, facial details (eyes, nose, mouth) rendered with higher precision than the loosely painted background and clothing. Background: very light white/gray, completely empty, emphasizing the figure's sharp contrast. Color: fully monochrome (black/white/charcoal gray), no other colors, maximum contrast between deep black and pure white. Quality: visible canvas/paper texture, appearance of an original hand-painted artwork rather than a digital image, high resolution. Negative: no photographic smoothness, no excessive realistic skin detail, no digital or CGI appearance, no color, no digitally-refined soft edges — must look like a hand-painted ink and brush artwork.
