Pastel Chinese Landscape Expansion

The Prompt
Using the provided reference image as the compositional and color inspiration, expand the minimal abstract scene into a richly detailed vertical classical Chinese landscape painting rather than a sparse illustration. Reinterpret the soft green and pink watercolor washes as real scenery: mist-wrapped emerald mountains, pale sunrise clouds, spring trees, flowering blossoms, grassy riverbanks, and a winding river. Remove the simple horse-rider motif and replace it with an inhabited riverside scene containing exactly 10 small human figures: 9 travelers or villagers on the left bank in small groups, and 1 boatman standing on a covered wooden boat on the river. Add one covered wooden boat, willow trees, flowering pink trees, distant huts, layered blue-green peaks, low fog between mountains, and gentle ripples in the water. Keep the airy pastel mood and vertical composition from the reference, but make the world feel complete, narrative, and collectible, with delicate brushwork, luminous atmosphere, and an elegant traditional landscape aesthetic. Target style: {argument name="art style" default="classical Chinese landscape painting with soft pastel brushwork"}. Time of day: {argument name="time of day" default="sunrise"}. Season: {argument name="season" default="spring"}. Main setting: {argument name="main setting" default="misty riverside mountain valley"}. Mood: {argument name="mood" default="peaceful, poetic, and idyllic"}.
