Surreal petal portrait

Prompt
Create a square 1:1 painterly fine art fashion portrait of a graceful feminine figure made almost entirely from thousands of floating flower petals, with the body shown in elegant three-quarter profile facing left. The figure’s head and hair should be a dense sculptural mass of layered blossoms and petals in {argument name="petal color palette" default="dusty rose pink, ivory white, muted mauve, and deep shadow gray"}, with petals forming the neck, shoulders, and upper torso like a fragmented floral gown. Use soft realistic brushwork, high-detail floral textures, romantic surreal atmosphere, moody studio lighting, and a subdued {argument name="background color" default="blue gray"} background. Add many individual drifting petals around the head and shoulders, especially to the left and right edges, as if wind is pulling the figure apart. Place one large opaque square censor-like block over the central face and upper chest area, colored muted brownish mauve, with clean straight edges and no text. Keep the composition elegant, melancholic, and high-fashion, with shallow depth of field, no logo, no watermark, and no written text.Example output
