Two versions of the same picture, and both are free with no account and no watermark. The first has no background at all, which is the one to send your artist — but a phone or computer photo viewer set to dark will show black strokes on dark grey and it can look like nothing downloaded. If that happens, use the second one: identical characters on a plain white background. Either way you get the characters on their own — the square and the faint guide lines you see above are not in the file. Each character is 1000px, so a two-character download is 2000×1000, and the script and layout are the ones you picked.
Script
Characters
Same in both
Layout
Rubbing mode: white on black, as a stone rubbing. The download is unaffected.
Mild heat, and by extension the mildness of a person who is easy to be near.
Before you commit
Choose with care溫 also means lukewarm, and it is the 溫 of 溫度, temperature, and of fever. Alone it can read as a measurement rather than a mood.
Pairs well with溫柔 for gentleness, 溫暖 for warmth, 溫和 for a mild, even-tempered nature.
At small sizesThirteen strokes with a water radical and a stacked right half. The horizontal bars at the base merge when reduced, so keep it generous.
Meaning
Warm; of a person, mild and gentle.
Both senses live in this one character, which is why it works for human warmth.
Other characters for “warmth”
What to do next
Pick the script and layout you want above, download the PNG, and send that file to your artist. Ask them to work from the file rather than redrawing the character freehand — that is where strokes go missing.
