This prompt borrows the vocabulary of contemporary editorial illustration and stacks it carefully: a stippled black-and-white halftone figure as the base, then cyan and yellow risograph shapes, graffiti scribbles, glitch artefacts and a strip of pink or orange tape across the form for a 'deconstructed' look. The final sentences enforce a lot of cream paper around a centred subject with zero cropping, which keeps the busy collage feeling chic rather than chaotic. We used a fictional jazz trumpeter in a vintage suit, and the result looks like a festival poster ready for type. It works for musicians, athletes, products or abstract themes; describe the pose, since it defines the silhouette.

Keep 'generous negative space, zero cropping' so you have room to add text later.
Use fictional people or your own brand, not real celebrities.
