## Prompt (replace [TEXT] with your text)

```text
Paint [TEXT] in watercolor, wet-on-wet, on textured cold-press paper. The letterforms of a rounded brush script are first wetted with clear water (a faint glossy sheen), then drops of transparent pigment (ultramarine blue, rose and warm yellow) land one after another from left to right and bloom outward inside the wet letters, following irregular fractal fronts. Where blooms overlap the colors glaze into violet, green and orange; where they meet or reach the letter edges, pigment collects into darker cauliflower edges. Pigment granulates into the paper grain, a few splatter dots appear, and the sheen dries to matte. Then a sweep of clear water lifts the paint away and the loop restarts.
```

## Visual DNA

- Wet-on-wet blooms spreading from drops, confined to the wetted letterforms
- Transparent glazing: blue, rose and yellow mix into violet, green and orange
- Darker fractal cauliflower edges where blooms meet and at the letter rims
- Pigment granulation settling into cold-press paper texture
- Glossy wet sheen that dries matte; a sweep of water lifts the paint to loop
