WHY THIS PROMPT WORKS
Clear creative anchors
Chinese Ink Painting — Prompt 1 works because it makes the visual hierarchy explicit: Chinese ink wash painting of mist drifting through karst mountains, one small boat on a river, spare brushwork, rice-paper texture. The subject, atmosphere, and treatment are all named, giving the model concrete creative anchors instead of a vague style label.
MAKE IT YOUR OWN
