Five steps.
No sorcery required.

The aim is a useful result, not an impressive conversation with a robot.

Decide the job: concept, illustration, product visual or edit.

Describe the subject, setting, composition, mood and aspect ratio.

Generate a first version.

Change one or two things at a time so you can judge the difference.

For commercial work, check brand, likeness, copyright and factual details before publishing.

Try this prompt
Create a [aspect ratio] image for [purpose]. Subject: [subject]. Setting: [setting]. Mood: [mood]. Leave clear space for [text/logo if needed].
How you know it worked

The image fits the actual job, not merely the prompt.

Keep a human in charge. AI can be wrong, incomplete or overconfident. Check important facts, prices, legal/financial/medical information, customer promises and anything irreversible.
