Create a vintage-style editorial poster printed on aged Xuan paper to commemorate {argument name="artist name" default="CHEN UEN"} The design blends museum infographics, Chinese ink painting illustrations, and calligraphy. The poster is a single, vertical image against a weathered parchment background with ink splatters, faded handwritten annotations, and red seals, creating an academic, archival atmosphere. At the top, the prominent black calligraphic characters "郑问" (Zheng Wen) are followed by a slash and large serif Romanized spelling.{argument name="romanized name" default="CHEN UEN"} A small red stamp is attached to the side. A subtitle is added below the title.{argument name="subtitle text" default="The Taiwanese Master Who Turned Comics into Ink-Born Epic"} The artwork uses an elegant reddish-brown serif font. At the center of the image is a dramatic, impressionistic scene: a male artist in a loose white shirt sits at a table, holding a brush suspended over the paper, his face softly blurred by rectangular strokes. Behind him, a halo-like ring of monochrome ink warriors and historical figures surrounds him: nine visible figures, including armored generals, swordsmen, and cavalrymen, emerging from bursts of black brushstrokes and smoky ink. On the left, a vertical section titled "Life & Milestones" is created, with a black-stroke title and a smaller Chinese subtitle. Six timelines are listed, marked with red years and bilingual descriptions: Born in Taiwan in 1958, *Warrior Black Panther* in 1983, *Abi Sword* in 1989, *Heroes of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty* in 1990, winner of the Japan Cartoonists Association Award in 1991, and *Legend Forever* in 2017. Below, add a section titled "Ink in Detail," containing four framed brushstroke studies with brief English descriptions: Dry brush texture, Ink wash gradient, Splatter energy, and Bold contour line. On the right, create a vertical area titled "Visual Method," with a black brushstroke title and a smaller Chinese subtitle. This contains five stacked framed studies in a graphic layout: Brush as blade, Ink as atmosphere, Anatomy as fate, History as theatre, and Speed lines become calligraphy. Below in the center, create an area titled "Major Works Constellation," with a dark brushstroke title. Arrange five circular work nodes around the central ink ring, each containing calligraphic characters. Five nodes are marked: Abi Sword, Heroes of the Eastern Zhou, Assassin Biographies, Magical Super Asia, and Game character design legacy. Each circle contains a unique monochrome or low-saturation ink painting illustration, connected by thin lines resembling constellations. In the lower right corner, an area titled "Studio Notes" is added, containing six visible items: four hanging brushes, one ink bowl, and one palette with blue and red pigments; below this is a sketchbook with a pencil figure sketch. At the bottom, a wide area is added, titled "Why He Matters," with a black-stroke title and a smaller Chinese subtitle, followed by a serif English text describing his importance in comics, painting, calligraphy, film, and epic narratives. The color palette uses restrained tan, ink black, off-white, and soft gray, accented with deep red and a touch of blue. The overall image should present a sophisticated cultural tribute poster feel, with a compact and balanced layout, rich details, a painterly quality, and a faithful adherence to the aesthetics of Chinese ink painting.
