Anime Scientist Portrait

Hand-painted anime film still, watercolour backgrounds, warm natural light, gentle cel shading. A portrait of a scientist in her forties in a lab coat holding a glowing flask, shelves of equipment behind, curious expression. Any person shown is an adult in their late twenties or older, drawn with adult proportions, realistic eye size and a mature face; an original character. No text, no letters, no logos, no watermark.

Prompt tip: Describe the time of day before the objects — the light sets the mood.
