## Prompt

```text
Generate a paper-based line drawing visual work based on a specific theme. The image is first established by extremely fine, slightly shaky hand-drawn lines to build space, subject outline, structural transitions, paths, and scale relationships. Then, a few high-purity color surfaces are introduced only to the most critical recognition planes, connection nodes, emotional pauses, and centers of gravity; color is not a full fill but acts as precise annotations to edit attention. The overall visual area is dominated by warm off-white paper and black fine lines. Paper texture, tiny spots, and a slight scan feel should be clearly present. Ample white space is reserved above or around to make the subject appear as if observed in a page of a travel manuscript. Visual weight is concentrated in the middle or lower-middle part, maintaining breathable distance around the subject. The composition consists of a clear anchor, a low-density environment layer, and a few colored nodes. The core object maintains recognizable structural lines, outlines, local hatching, and compressed details. Details gather along edges, openings, corners, and movement paths. Volume and shadows are achieved through fine hatching and varying line density. Background appears as a low-density line-art memory layer. Added tiny figures or symbols serve as scale 'noise' to give a sense of life and usage. If text is needed, use narrow, restrained annotation-style fonts. The final surface shows the finish of pen line drawing, colored pencil, or light ink overlay, with quiet, open, manual textures and slight perspective errors. Theme: {subject} Aspect Ratio: {ratio} Usage: {usage}
