What is Lucid Artifice SREF style

The Surrealism style challenges reality by presenting illogical, dreamlike scenarios with startling clarity. In Midjourney, this often translates to hyper-detailed renderings where unexpected objects—like snakes covering faces or floating landscapes—are depicted with almost photographic accuracy, evoking mystery and psychological depth. To effectively generate these images, a strong prompt must balance detailed rendering instructions with the desired bizarre elements, resulting in visually arresting and deeply symbolic artwork reminiscent of masters like Dalí or Magritte, but with modern digital polish.

Lucid Artifice Prompt Ideas

  • A solemn portrait of a young person whose eyes are concealed by a vividly patterned python, surrounded by blooming flowers, hyperdetailed, moody lighting, cinematic realism
  • A perfectly manicured suburban street under a dark, turbulent sky, a patch of intensely glowing red brush suspended above the neighborhood, flock of starlings, highly detailed oil painting
  • Opulent still life composition, cracked marble eggs, vibrant succulents, and a golden snake coiled around a bowl of ripe strawberries, dark background, chiaroscuro lighting
  • Floating island of dense, dry vegetation over a sea of thick, bright white clouds, small figures walking on the distant street below, dramatic atmosphere, high contrast

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Midjourney Style Reference (--sref)?

A Style Reference, or SREF, is a powerful feature that lets you use the aesthetic of a reference image to influence the style of your generations. Our library provides the direct SREF code for thousands of styles.

How do I understand and use the Aspect Ratio (--ar) parameter?

The --ar parameter controls the aspect ratio of your image. For example, --ar 16:9 creates a widescreen image. Our guide provides a full list of supported ratios.

Why is my SREF code not working?

Ensure you are using a compatible Midjourney version (v6 or newer) and check for typos. Sometimes, strong keywords in your prompt can override the style; try reducing the style weight (e.g., --sw 250).

Can I use this SREF code with a Character Reference (--cref)?

Yes, --sref and --cref can be used together. This is a powerful combination to maintain a consistent character while applying a consistent style.

Which versions support style reference?

Style Reference is compatible with Midjourney versions 6, 7, and Niji 6.

What is the default image size for Midjourney V7?

Midjourney V7 creates upscaled images at 2048 x 2048 pixels for the default 1:1 aspect ratio.

What is the default style weight and what range can I use?

The default style weight is --sw 100. You can set it between 0 and 1000.
