Color Blocking AI Art Prompts
45 AI image style prompts built on color blocking. Each is a reusable style block with a sample image: paste it into Midjourney, Flux, Stable Diffusion, GPT Image or any text-to-image model, then add your own subject at the end.
37 of them also have a model-neutral version with artist names removed, for hosted models that refuse them.
Artists referenced in these prompts include Shepard Fairey, Patrick Nagel, Andy Warhol, Tamara de Lempicka, Aaron Horkey, Reid Miles.
