Artistic Styles SREF Codes for Midjourney
Curated artistic Midjourney SREF codes for fine art, illustration, and traditional art styles.
Artistic Styles SREF codes transform your Midjourney prompts into beautiful works inspired by traditional art movements and illustration techniques. These codes apply specific artistic aesthetics - from oil painting and watercolor to ink illustration and digital art - without you needing to describe complex artistic techniques in your prompt. Simply add the code, describe your subject, and let the SREF handle the artistic style.
Quick Start:
Use --sref 178455688 --sw 120 for traditional oil painting, or --sref 2653204188 --sw 110 for soft watercolor aesthetics.
Skip Art Technique Descriptions:
Don't describe the artistic medium when using these codes. Instead of "watercolor painting of flowers", just say "flowers" and let the SREF code apply the watercolor style.
