Can the drawing use more than one color?

Yes — ask for a second marker color for accents or the caption. The single-color look is the default because it reads most like a real office drawing.

Will the caption text come out correctly?

Short all-caps captions render most reliably. Put the exact wording in quotes and keep it to a few words per line.

Can I change the setting around the board?

Yes. Ask for a classroom, meeting room, or hallway and the background depth, lighting, and reflections adjust while the board stays the subject.

Recommended model: GPT Image 2

Create a realistic photograph of an ordinary office or classroom whiteboard carrying a skilled dry-erase marker drawing of the subject described in the user request. Render the artwork as confident hand-drawn linework in a single marker color: a detailed sketch with hatching, varied line weight, and the slightly chalky, semi-translucent quality of marker pigment where strokes overlap and thin out. Near the drawing, add short handwritten caption text in the same marker, in casual all-caps handwriting; take the wording from the user request, or invent a simple fitting label if none is given. Sell the trompe-l'oeil with photographic evidence: a glossy white board surface catching window glare and soft light reflections on one side, faint ghosting of previously erased marks, a thin metallic frame with a marker tray visible at the bottom edge, and a shallow, believable office or classroom depth behind. Keep the photograph neutral and documentary — natural light, true whites, everyday setting. No watermark, no printed logos, no digital-looking vector linework. User request: a green marker sketch of a samurai in profile, caption 'STAY SHARP'
