How to use art styles in prompts

Search engines respond better when a page explains its purpose clearly. This section also helps visitors use the catalogue faster: pick a subject, add one style, then refine with mood, lighting, material, or composition.

1. Start with the subject

Write the main scene first: character, product, landscape, poster, portrait, or concept art.

2. Add one style phrase

Choose one style from the library to control the look without muddying the image with too many competing aesthetics.

3. Refine the finish

Layer in camera angle, texture, palette, lighting, rendering quality, or print feel after the core style is set.
