Add a large blue shadow silhouette behind her, shaped like a peacock figure with a peacock feather on the top right. The shadow should be filled with textured blue pencil strokes. Surround the woman with a glowing yellow outline that makes the character pop from the background.
Background should be a notebook page with light blue horizontal lines. Add handwritten red-pencil doodles around, such as arrows pointing to details, words like ‘Night!’, ‘Cool Shadow!’, ‘Peacock!’, and ‘Mood Light!’. Add small sparkly golden particles scattered across the scene for a magical mood-light effect.
