河南 — 字母中的南山

Create an exceptional original flat illustration for a collectible tea-region ceramic wrap. The attached image is a STYLE reference, not a content reference: preserve its drawing intelligence, print character and relationship between title, scenes and empty glaze; replace every Guangdong-specific subject and word. Output one panoramic native 3840 x 1280 pixel PNG with a genuine RGBA alpha channel. All artwork, including lettering, must remain wholly inside x60..3780 and y110..1170. The upper and lower outside bands and the external negative space must be transparent, not white paint. The final production crop will be 3840 x 1152 pixels for a 250 x 75 mm wrap; do not draw dimensions, crop marks or a frame. No mug, mockup, photograph, simulated paper, decorative rectangular background, cast shadow, checkerboard or watermark.

DRAWING AND PRINT DISCIPLINE: Use confident authored linework, recognisable local silhouettes, selective flat colour and well-resolved hands, vessels and architecture. Details reward close looking but the main story reads across a small ceramic surface. Colour belongs to actual drawn objects or deliberate bounded accents. Transparent sky, river openings, architectural gaps and open vessel interiors are part of the design. Do not use a continuous opaque landscape base, atmosphere wash, cream substrate or enormous filled silhouette behind everything. Keep deliberate pauses between major masses without making a sticker sheet. Never cut off a letter, roof, person, handle or tree at the image boundary. Do not scatter repeated generic teapots as filler. Each featured tea action must communicate a different part of the region's tea story. This is an illustrated interpretation, not a navigable map: no compass, coordinate grid, dotted connectors, numbered pins, legend or tiny labels.

COLLECTION C2 — GRAND TEA LETTERING.
Five-colour hand-drawn grand serif lettering integrated with a connected regional tea world. The large single region word is the unmistakable structural hero, fully readable with clean counters and open interiors. Put real scenes around the letter feet, in the intervals and behind selected edges. Do NOT fill the letters with photographs or landscape textures, disguise letters as mountains, or cover their skeleton. A branch, roof or working hand may cross one small edge. The letter rhythm binds varied human-scale discoveries into one authored composition.

REGION: HENAN. EXACT PALETTE: #584F2C, #B66B3A, #538A87, #8A715E, #BEA05B. Use only these opaque graphic inks and their clean antialiased edges; no white ink, black substitution or extra colours. Transparent negative space is not an additional ink.

The broad serif word HENAN stands above a connected belt of southern tea work. Shihe fine-leaf sorting sits in front of H/E; a curved Dongjiahe garden rises behind E; Guangshan basket-carrying and Shangcheng hillside picking occupy the central N/A intervals. The final N is balanced by a Tongbai workshop and Xinxian drying racks. One close infusion glass reveals slender leaves without a scientific diagram. Keep the word crisply separated from its scenery and preserve all counters; colours distinguish wood, leaf, clothing and tea tools.

REGIONAL TRUTH: Henan tea production is concentrated in its southern hills. Xinyang Maojian is a fine green tea, with Shihe a core district and the Dongjiahe tea mountains an established origin. Its craft includes spreading, pan fixation/rolling, shaping and drying. Guangshan, Shangcheng and Xinxian are real tea-producing areas in the wider Xinyang region; Tongbai is a distinct southern Henan tea area. Xinyang Hong is black tea, not the same processing as Maojian. Never place tea plantations across the northern Yellow River plain or grow tea among the Longmen carvings. Shaolin, Kaifeng and Luoyang are cultural travel motifs, not asserted tea estates.

SPECIFIC COMPOSITION: Use the short five-letter title to allow generous scale for the hands and baskets. A single rural roofline threads the lower letter feet with low terraces returning behind. The processing pan projects closest at one end, and the small final tea garden recedes. No separate framed origin badges.

TEXT: Main title exactly "HENAN". Secondary labels, each once and attached to its correct scene: Shihe; Guangshan; Shangcheng; Xinxian; Tongbai. No other text.

FINAL ART DIRECTION: Make every major group different in scale and gesture. Do not give every scene a surrounding halo or a separate base. A viewer should discover a clear regional idea at arm's length and then human actions, leaf shapes and local building features nearby. Keep the specified palette visible as actual graphic inks, not merely a tint over green scenery. Do not add unrequested slogans, stamps, logos, dates, Chinese characters or gibberish. The exact allowed English words below are the entire text vocabulary. Keep secondary words comfortably readable if allowed; omit a minor caption rather than shrinking it to microscopic lettering. Render the regional title exactly once and complete, with comfortable space around it. No extra title repeated on vessels or buildings. Draw a finished cohesive piece of print art, never a presentation board.
