Style prompt

Color woodblock-print aesthetics organize a scene into interlocking flat planes, fine horizontal water lines, and softened but legible silhouettes. Layer distant forms in cool blue-green steps beneath a warm peach-to-amber sky. Let one compact warm glow answer the broad cool field, then repeat key dark and warm shapes in broken reflections. Keep edges crisp enough to feel carved while allowing subtle grain and slight color variation to suggest printed paper. Use strong negative space, slim upright accents, and low horizontal bands to make stillness palpable. Evening light is diffuse, with warmth concentrated near the horizon and small focal light; the resulting mood is hushed, balanced, and lyrical.

Full example prompt

A square woodblock-print-like landscape shows a small traditional house on a rocky lakeside point beneath tall dark conifers at sunset. Still water occupies the lower half, its surface drawn in horizontal blue-green bands broken by pink and orange reflections. At the upper left, a warm peach sky grades into muted amber near the horizon, with a thin row of low gray clouds extending toward distant layered blue mountains. A tiny boat carrying two dark figures floats near the left midline, its silhouette barely disturbing the wide empty lake. On the right, the shore rises into a low stone embankment and a dark green mass of shrubs. The house sits just above the waterline under a deep roof, and a warm orange lamp glows in its open front or window. Three tall, narrow evergreens spear upward behind the roof, their nearly black forms standing against the last light. The trees and lit building reappear below as long, wavering reflections that stretch down into the lake. Near the center, a few pale glints interrupt the darker water, and distant hills fade in measured layers rather than photographic blur. Flat interlocking color shapes, fine rippling lines, and subtle paper grain make the landscape feel printed and carefully composed. The light is the low diffuse glow of evening, warming the sky and house while cool shadow settles on trees, rocks, and water. The composition balances the broad reflective lake and open sky against a compact illuminated shore, yielding a quiet, contemplative twilight.
