Art Style Type
This SREF style blends elements of illustrated storybook art, Japanese manga aesthetics, and watercolor techniques. The gentle linework, dreamlike color palette, and slightly melancholic atmosphere create a kind of "poetic realism." Rather than pursuing photorealism, it conveys mood through simplified forms and emotional expression, similar to the work of Japanese illustrators like Nobuhiko Yabuki.
Style Characteristics
The main characteristics of these images include a soft, unified color palette dominated by blue-green tones and gentle orange-yellows, creating a dreamy yet slightly melancholic atmosphere. The linework is simple yet expressive, outlining figures and scenes without excessive detail. Star elements and cosmic imagery add a surreal quality, infusing ordinary scenes with poetic significance. The overall composition has a floating quality, as if all elements exist weightlessly in an emotionally charged space, which is precisely what makes this style so captivating.
