Orin, a gentle-faced man with wide bright eyes and a serene, amazed expression, stands at the parapet of a gray stone bell tower holding a glowing golden-pink pearl in both hands raised slightly toward the sky; at his feet sits Whisper, a pearly iridescent female cat with large green lantern eyes and a curled tail, watching the pearl with curiosity. The worn wide steps and wrought-iron balustrade overlook a town of silver slate roofs, thin chimneys and lit windows as dawn paints the sky pink-orange with fluffy clouds and broad golden rays. The pearl emits a soft halo and falling sparkling particles over a peaceful, hopeful, magical scene. Palette: warm pastel tones (pinks, golds, creams) with night-blue and stone-gray accents, clean lines, slightly curved black outlines, simple contrasted shadows.
