How to use this prompt
Bonsai foliage must read as separate pads, not a green cloud, so the prompt insists on "dense green scale-like foliage pads with clear negative space between them" — that negative space is the mark of a trained tree and the thing an untrained render gets wrong. The copper wire is the story: it should spiral neatly and visibly along the branch, because wiring is the technique being shown. Keep the pot shallow and plain so it grounds the tree without competing. Soft window light keeps the scale-like juniper texture readable; hard light would blow out the tiny overlapping leaves.
Variations to try
- Pruning shot — concave cutters removing a small branch
- Autumn maple — a maple bonsai with red leaves being wired
