AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a rectangle and divide it into two equal parts. First, draw a horizontal line through the center of the rectangle, then draw a vertical line through the center. The intersection of these two lines will divide the rectangle into four equal sections. Next, connect the midpoints of the diagonals, forming two lines that will divide the rectangle into two equal parts.
