What is Watercolor Sketch SREF style

This illustration technique is defined by its fluid, expressive washes of watercolor paint juxtaposed with energetic, loose black ink lines defining the forms. The colors often bleed and blend softly, creating an atmospheric, spontaneous feel, while the linework provides structure and immediacy. This aesthetic captures subjects quickly, emphasizing emotion and texture over hyper-realism. When crafting a **Midjourney** **prompt** for this **style**, incorporating terms like "loose ink outlines," "wet-on-wet watercolor," and "sketchy" is crucial to achieve this vibrant, hand-drawn **style**.

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.

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