How to use it
Replace the bracketed placeholders for subject, expression and pose with your own choices, and keep the phrases about black ink only and large white negative space, since they hold the look together. The handwritten fragments are what give it depth, so write your own short lines in place of generic ones if you want a personal touch. It works well as a portrait for a journal page, a poster backdrop or a quiet profile image. It was shared as a GPT Image 2 prompt.
