Write better prompts

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 occur on a mountain, in an office, or focus on a person?

Next, build a scene around the subject. What other elements should you show 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 you want?

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

  • 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.
