# Concentric-Line Image

> Concentric circular lines organize tone only through local width and white-gap changes, revealing form within a regular ring system.

## About this style

One family of concentric circles spans the image, with local line width and white gaps revealing the subject. A stable center preserves the system while thickness modulation carries the image.

Concentric-line images retain one ring system while varying line width to encode tone.

Thicker eye-socket sections and thinner forehead sections can reveal a face without turning the rings into contour drawing.

### How the style changes different subjects

- **Portrait**: Changes in line spacing or width reveal facial tones within a continuous line field.

- **Landscape**: Line density separates scenery while one coherent system replaces literal texture.

- **Object**: Line spacing models curves and broad gaps supply highlights, often reducing small lettering.

**Subjects**: Choose side-lit portraits, hills, spheres or simple objects with clear tonal structure.

## Reusable style prompt

```text
Build the entire image from black concentric circles sharing a single fixed center. Keep the rings perfectly circular and continuous to the image edges. Encode tone only through local line thickness and the white gaps between rings: dark passages thicken into bands, while highlights become hairlines. Let recognizable forms emerge from this circular carrier rhythm, with pure paper white and black ink producing clear structure at a distance.
