Translucent Layering AI Art Prompts
45 AI image style prompts built on translucent layering. 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.
39 of them also have a model-neutral version with artist names removed, for hosted models that refuse them.
Artists referenced in these prompts include Hiroshi Yoshida, Lotte Reiniger, Jaromír Funke, Harry Clarke, Maxfield Parrish, Lyonel Feininger.
