Full sentences. Describe the scene, then the medium, then the flaws you want kept in.

The recipe is the style, not the picture. Put your own subject in and the prompt updates.

Prompt

A flat illustration of a pizza on a white plate seen from directly above on a bright blue tablecloth, with two glasses of water beside it. Everything drawn as flat shapes with no shading or gradients: tomato slices as red circles, basil as single green marks, crust as one cream shape with a darker edge. Saturated confident colour, simple black line only where two shapes need separating.
