Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of watercolor illustration, Japanese illustration, and magical realism. The images present soft color tones and delicate details while maintaining a hand-drawn quality, creating works that are both artistic and dreamlike, existing at the boundary between reality and imagination.

Style Characteristics

The main characteristics of this style are gentle color harmonies, delicate linework, and an ethereal quality. All images share a subdued color palette dominated by blues, beige, and soft neutral tones. There's a slight faded quality to the images, as if time has gently washed away some of their saturation, giving the overall atmosphere a quiet, melancholic feel. The lines are refined but not rigid, creating a hand-crafted artistic quality rather than a purely digital aesthetic. Each piece carries a quiet narrative quality, and what makes this style impressive is its ability to convey complex emotions through simplicity.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Soft watercolor: Pairing with this word enhances the semi-transparent, layered watercolor effect in the images, making color transitions more natural
  • Vintage illustration: Using this word can reinforce the nostalgic quality in the artwork, adding more storytelling and temporal depth to the images
  • Dreamlike atmosphere: Adding this element improves the emotional expression of the images, enhancing that hazy quality between reality and dreams, making the overall work more poetic

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for children's book illustrations, literary work accompaniments, emotional-themed social media content, indie game art, branding for artistic cafΓ©s or bookstores, and personal art exhibition pieces. It excellently expresses subtle yet profound emotions and is ideal for contexts requiring a quiet, contemplative atmosphere.

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
