Worried Pebble Friend · Raised Inner Brows

SUBJECT
One original anthropomorphic gray pebble character with a rounded body, two eyes, two eyebrows, a small mouth, short arms and short legs. Its eyebrows convey quiet concern while its hands rest loosely beside its body.

COMPOSITION
Show the entire character facing directly toward the viewer at eye level, centered in a square frame with generous empty space. Keep both eyebrows unobstructed and large enough to read clearly.

STYLE GUIDE
1. Shape & line
Draw the body as a slightly irregular rounded oval with a clean charcoal contour. Place each eyebrow's inner end visibly higher near the facial center and its outer end lower toward the image-left or image-right edge; use gently curved strokes rather than a sharp angry V. Add open oval eyes and a small downward-curving mouth.

2. Color & light
Use a restrained warm-gray body against warm ivory, with dark facial marks that remain distinct from the shading. Light the character softly from the upper image-left, leaving a broad gentle shadow on its image-right side and a small muted ground shadow beneath its feet.

3. Texture & material
Render the pebble in matte gouache with softly opaque fills and a few broad, faint stone speckles. Keep the eyebrow strokes and eye edges crisp against the subdued surface texture so the expression reads before the material.

4. Composition
Keep the frontal face balanced around a vertical centerline, leaving a visible gap between the raised inner brow ends. Place the arms below the face and separate the short legs with a clear background gap; reserve the strongest contrast for the eyes and eyebrows.

PRIORITY
Preserve the requested identity, count, action, composition and output settings. Apply the style rules within those constraints; a style reference must not replace the subject or layout. Within the style: Make the raised inner brow ends the clearest cue of quiet worry.

AVOID
Avoid inward-slanting angry brows, tears and texture that obscures the face.

OUTPUT
One square character illustration with a plain warm ivory background and no text, lettering, logos or watermark.

SELF-CHECK
Check that both inner brow ends sit higher than their outer ends and the expression reads at thumbnail size.
