How to use this prompt
The branch should be named as eucalyptus with 'long narrow blue-green leaves'; that leaf shape is what tells a viewer this is Australia and not a generic tree. A curled sleeping pose gives the koala a round, compact silhouette — the shape children's illustrators favour because it reads at any size. Ask for the fur as 'soft fluffy grey with white ear tufts' so the ears stay the focal point. Keep the sky one gentle gradient. For a set of nursery prints, keep this wording and swap only the animal and its home branch, so the prints match.
Variations to try
- Awake koala — sitting up munching leaves for an educational children's print
- Night koala — stars and crescent moon for a bedtime illustration
