Prompt
A single unbroken continuous black ink line on white paper drawing of a seated cellist mid-bow-stroke, the line never lifting from the page, flowing from the player's forehead down the bowed arm through the cello's scroll and body into the bowing hand and back, capturing the figure and instrument as one connected gesture, the cello's F-holes and strings implied by small loops in the line, generous white space around the figure, no shading, no color fill, no text, square composition

How to use this prompt
The phrase "the line never lifting from the page" is the load-bearing instruction — without it, Flux defaults to a normal outline drawing and the continuous-line look is lost. "One connected gesture" is the second anchor: it tells the model the figure and cello share a single stroke, which is the whole point of the technique (Picasso's one-line drawings are the reference). Loops in the line for the F-holes are a way to imply detail without lifting the pen; naming that trick keeps the model from breaking the line to draw them. Generous white space is non-negotiable — a one-line drawing needs room or it tangles into a knot.
Variations to try
- Swap the cello for a violin, the smaller body forcing tighter loops in the line
- Draw the cellist standing in a more dramatic full-body bow lean
