AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Create a pottery bowl surface by first drawing a freehand 2D cross section, then rotating this cross section around the y-axis to generate a 3D surface. The cross section starts wide at the bottom, narrows in the middle, and tapers to a point at the top.
The prompt above was compiled from the original drawing commands and is for reference only.
