Ai art lounge: Metapix prompt guides

Midjourney V6, an AI tool for creating art, has opened up a world of possibilities for artists and enthusiasts alike. Whilst it’s known for its ability to generate images in popular styles, there are several unique art styles that are less commonly used on Midjourney but can offer a fresh perspective and lead you towards further inspiration. Knowing these art styles could be what makes your Ai generated images stand out as they’re less typically used or known off.

We aim to share all our tips and tricks whilst posting here and hopefully they can help. One thing we can say for certain is how much your vocabulary counts. For example, rather than prompt “purple”, try prompting for “Amethyst purple under full moonlight”, you’ll likely get a much better response.

Percisionism

Precisionism style art is known for its celebration of industrialisation and geometric forms, Precisionism focuses on the modern American landscape with clean lines and a polished finish. Often striking due to the unconventional angles it uses to depict commonly seen structures within urban environments, encouraging us to see what we thought was normal in an abnormal way.

Fauvism

Characterized by strong, vibrant colours and bold brushstrokes, Fauvism emphasises painterly qualities and strong colour over realistic values.

Harlem Renaissance

This movement is rooted in African-American culture, offering a rich tapestry of visual arts, literature, music, and Theatre that rejects stereotypes and expresses pride.

“A jazz club scene from the 1920s, with elegantly dressed African American musicians and dancers, capturing the vibrancy and dynamism of Harlem nightlife, in the style of the Harlem Renaissance.”

Neo-Impressionism

A systematic painting technique that’s grounded in science and the study of optics, Neo-Impressionism is known for its structured, deliberate approach to capturing light and colour.

“A serene park scene with people leisurely strolling and children playing, depicted with precise dots of colour that blend from a distance, capturing the luminous effect of sunlight, in the style of Neo-Impressionism.”

Neoclassicism

Drawing inspiration from the classical art and culture of Ancient Greece and Rome, Neoclassicism is about symmetry, simplicity, and grandeur.

“A heroic figure from ancient mythology, posed dramatically and idealised in form, set against a backdrop of classical architecture, in the style of Neoclassicism.”

Rococo

Originating in France, Rococo is ornate and decorative, with elaborate ornamentation and a focus on light-hearted romance and courtly love.

“ An ornate Rococo styled luxury saloon with grand features and furnishing in a dusty pastel colour palette commonly seen in the rococo era.”

Neon Impressionism

Emerging in the 1960s, Neon Art uses neon lighting to explore the relationship between light, colour, and space, often tapping into pop culture and consumerism.

Psychedelic Surrealism

Combining the mind-bending qualities of psychedelia with the dream-like aspects of Surrealism, this style can transport viewers into otherworldly realms

“A dreamlike scene where the laws of physics and logic do not apply, filled with melting clocks, floating objects, and kaleidoscopic patterns, in the style of Psychedelic Surrealism.”

Cosmic Surrealism

This style involves crafting scenes that blend surreal landscapes with cosmic elements, creating a sense of the infinite and the otherworldly.

“An otherworldly landscape where planets, stars, and nebulae merge with surreal formations on the ground, creating a sense of the infinite and the sublime, in the style of Cosmic Surrealism.”
