Art Style Type

This SREF style blends stippling art with modern minimalist illustration. It resembles a fusion of traditional pointillism technique with contemporary digital art, building images through dense dot patterns to create a visual effect that feels both classical and modern. The style is reminiscent of printmaking art but with the precision and layering unique to digital media.

Style Characteristics

The most distinctive feature of this style is the use of dense dot textures to construct images, creating a unique grain and tactile quality. The color palette is quite restrained, primarily using black, white, and gray, accented with warm orange and red highlights. Each image shows clear textural contrast and depth, using variations in dot density to express light, shadow, and volume. This style is particularly impressive because it perfectly combines complex details with minimalist composition, offering both the warmth of handcrafted art and the cleanness of modern design.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Stippling art: Enhances the density and refinement of the dot textures in the work, giving the images more handcrafted feel and artistic quality
  • High contrast: Strengthens the transition levels between black and white, making the form outlines more distinct with stronger visual impact
  • Limited palette: Maintains restrained use of color, allowing accent colors to stand out more prominently, reinforcing the overall artistry and emotional expression

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for literary work illustrations, independent magazine covers, modern poetry book artwork, music album covers, visual branding for boutique coffee shops or bookstores, and any creative project seeking to combine artistic sensibility with contemporary aesthetics. It's also excellent for illustrative work expressing profound or philosophical themes.

More Tips


You can explore further by combining the following command:

  • --sv: There are six versions of the Style Reference feature in Midjourney version 7 when using images. Use the --sv parameter to choose between them. --sv 6 is default. --sv 4 is the old V7 sref model (prior to June 16, 2025). Using --sv 6 and --sv 4 may produce different style results.
  • --s: Default value is 100, can be set from 0 to 1000. The higher the value, the more detailed the image, and the closer the style may be to reality.
  • -niji 6: Using this command will give the image a more anime style.
  • --sw: Default value is 100, can be input from 0 to 1000. A higher value makes the style closer to the original.
  • You can now blend multiple --sref codes together (for example --sref 123 456 )
  • You can weigh individual codes or urls as follows --sref 123::2
