Medium: The material or method used to create the artwork, which affects its style and appearance.

Style: The artistic approach or genre, such as impressionist, surreal, or cyberpunk.

Resolution: The level of detail and sharpness in the image, which strongly affects its quality.

Copy and paste this into ChatGPT to generate an image prompt:

An image of [adjective] [subject] [doing action], [medium], [style], detailed, ultra realistic, [resolution], in the style of [famous artist 1], [famous artist 2], [famous artist 3], [lighting style]

ChatGPT will automatically fill in items in brackets if you do not specify them. Now choose the subject and let ChatGPT do the rest.
