Better prompts result in better images from AI. Explore the following recommendations to create the perfect image.

Consider the subject matter

Consider your subject, style, and similar artists. For example, do you want your scene to take place on a mountain, in an office, or focus on a person?

Next, build a scene around the subject. What other elements should be shown in the image? For example, for a mountain subject, narrow the focus by asking the following questions:

  • What time of day should the image show?
  • Should there be people in the image? If so, what should they be doing?
  • What kind of mountain do we want?

The following image was generated by the prompt:  A person hiking in snowy mountains at sunset.

Style the image by type

AI often uses the most commonly used styles to similar prompts. However, you can refine your prompt to add style types such as the following:

  • Illustration
  • Realistic
  • Oil painting
  • Pencil drawing
  • Concept art

The following image was generated by the prompt:  A realistic photo of a person hiking in snowy mountains at sunset.
