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 highlighted part of the prompt changes.

Prompt

A print built entirely from thousands of fine straight lines radiating outward from a single vanishing point, filling the frame like a starburst. The same lines describe ground, sky and architecture at once, with tiny figures standing where the rays converge. Printed in one deep cobalt blue ink on cream paper, all tone made by line density alone. No solid fills, no second colour.
