Contest Brief

Tan is a 17-year old man living as a fisherman in a fantasy kingdom called Tamara. He is serious, thoughtful, gentle, and likes to daydream. He is a singer and songwriter, as well as a sailor. His hair is dark brown and his eyes are medium brown. His hair is wavy, though not curly, it is a bit ruffled by the wind. It is just shorter than chin length. He is handsome, with a bit of stubble from long hours at sea, though not a beard. His skin is light brown, about the color of a hazelnut. His features are neat and symmetrical. His ship is a 8-person fishing schooner made of brown wood. This is a pre-industrial culture so no technology or metal, basic sail. He wears a basic grey tunic and grey trousers. The portrait should include realistic detail of his face. Ideally in the image, he is leaning over the rail of his ship looking out at the water. His expression is hopeful, but serious.
