Prompt
A skateboard deck graphic in a seventies desert palette, a hard-edged sun built from a series of stacked horizontal bands in burnt orange, mustard and rust descending behind a low mesa silhouette, a single saguaro standing to one side, a repeating arch motif framing the whole composition, flat screen-print colour with no gradients and a slight visible ink overlap where the bands meet, cream ground, composition running vertically to suit a deck with generous empty margin at the top and bottom, no text, no letters
Negative prompt
blurry, low quality, gradients, photorealistic desert, drop shadows, text, letters, brand names, 3d, glossy finish, more than five colours, horizontal composition

How to use this prompt
A sun drawn as a disc is a picture; a sun drawn as stacked horizontal bands is a print, because each band is a separate screen and the banding itself becomes the design language. Asking for "a slight visible ink overlap where the bands meet" stops the result looking like a clean vector export and gives it the registration character of a real pull. The margins are a physical constraint rather than a stylistic one: a deck's nose and tail curve upward, so any element near the ends distorts badly once the graphic is applied to the board.
Variations to try
- Coastal palette swap: teal, sea foam and coral bands behind a wave crest instead of a mesa
- Night version — a banded moon in cream and violet over the same mesa on a deep indigo ground
