I saw this image on one of the posts from a creative I follow on Instagram, and absolutely loved it. The pen and ink work, the minimal design elements, the clean background, and the touch of humor - are simply brilliant. This May the 4th post - was perfect.

It made me wonder how I might best describe…

1 • how to use AI to better understand an art style

2 • how to use AI to find the proper language and descriptors to reproduce a style

The second point, is the next step. We don’t just want a broad range description - we want it framed in a concise way that can be useful in your preferred genAI image generator (ie - Sora Image, Midjourney, Leonardo, ImagineArt, etc…)

Additionally, without PLAY and exploration there is difficulty in finding the practical use to refine and practice your efforts - towards the desired outcomes / results.

What I did

I dropped the above image into ChtGPT-o3 and asked it to describe the style of the artwork.

Simple - right?
