- A permitted subject description. This example was generated from text only, without a reference image.
Example Recorded test output
Input
Create a square original editorial illustration of a small neighborhood greenhouse with three visible glasshouse bays, shelves of seedlings and one watering can. Render it as layered colored-sand relief: visible colored sand grains, low sculpted ridges and clean bounded color areas on a flat sand surface. Use a sand, sage, cream and terracotta palette. Keep the main subject centered with comfortable margins and a clear silhouette. No lettering, logo, watermark, labels, border, copied artwork or identifiable real product. This is fictional generated concept art, not a measured plan or a photograph of an actual location.
Output
Raised-looking sand grains, simple roof bays and plant shapes read clearly in cream, sage and terracotta. The watering can is visible beside the door.
