How much influence can I have over an AI generated art result?
So I experimented in Midjourney (version 4) by uploading one of my drawings follow by the prompt: "woman in a coffee shop in the style of ___," -- where I filled the blank out with the name of a famous artist.
I uploaded this drawing to Midjourney
prompt: "woman in a coffee house
in the style of (Artist)"
Below are the results generated by Midjourney when I uploaded my drawing followed by the prompt: "woman in a coffee house in the style of ___," where the blank is the artist.
Then I uploaded the prompt only, with the name of that artist, and posted the result generated side-by-side with what was influenced by my drawing.

CONCLUSION
My drawing did influence the AI image, as Midjourney generated full body figures and followed the composition somewhat. The images generated with the same text prompt alone, without uploading my drawing, were often, if not always, better.
However many of the "better images" looked alike, seeming to default to the same style (Thomas Hart Benton, John Currin, Norman Rockwell, Rick Griffin), so perhaps my drawing added a little character to the generated image.
Also Midjourney seems to generate a result in the mirror image of my composition.
I also wonder if my Midjourney history is influencing the generations, since I feel that some of the results for other people are not as good. Is Midjourney training on my history? Is Midjourney creating a bubble around my generations?
Psychedelic Hans Bellmer
Perhaps the next step is to paint these generated images...or send them off to be printed or painted:
- Taller 75 Grados (serigraph in Mexico, we love working with Arturo Negrete)
- Dafen Village online (Chinese company, I sent one of my drawings to China to be painted once)
- Fiverr (I tried them once for a 3D model)
And then exhibit all the AI Art in a Faker Faire.
UPSIDE DOWN
R Crumb
I then uploaded my drawing upside down, and added the same prompt: "in the style of R Crumb." The images generated were quite delightful.
