  • Prompt: An illustration in the raw, expressive style of Ashley Wood, portraying a full-body figure of a young pregnant woman, standing in a loose, fluid pose. Her body is rendered in sketchy, abstract brushwork with earthy tones, distressed textures, and spontaneous splashes of ink, giving her form a fragmented, war-torn grace typical of Wood's style. She cradles her belly with both hands—fingers slightly smudged, paint-streaked—resting gently in a gesture of serene protection. Her posture is quiet but powerful, radiating an inner stillness amid the surrounding chaos. Her long, unkempt hair trails in ink-smeared lines, blending into the smoky, erratic background filled with rust-toned gradients and heavy brush marks. At the center of the composition, her swollen belly is rendered translucent—ghostlike and luminous—glowing from within. Inside, the faint but clearly formed silhouette of a fetus pulses in shades of soft teal and electric white, bioluminescent like a living ember. Delicate halos of light radiate from the unborn child, contrasting starkly with the gritty textures around it, adding a surreal, near-spiritual focal point to the image. Loose anatomical sketches peek through parts of the figure’s body, as if the artist abandoned and rediscovered the form mid-creation. The background feels like a war between decay and life: urban decay, scorched pigments, mechanical remnants, and torn paper collages swirl and fight for space—but she remains calm, anchoring the chaos. This piece merges biological wonder with expressive abstraction, turning a moment of maternal intimacy into a visual storm of emotion, decay, and transcendent beauty—classic Ashley Wood: brutal, tender, alive.
