What you will get

An editorial portrait of you painting a large canvas or mural in a bright studio, in a paint-splattered apron with brushes in hand, big windows and colourful canvases around you.

Why it works

The prompt shows you mid-work, painting a canvas or a mural, which feels more natural than a posed portrait. A paint-splattered apron and brushes in hand are details that say artist. Big windows give the soft light studios are known for, and colourful canvases around you fill the frame with your craft.

Common mistake

The paintings in the room look like random blobs.

Fix: Name the style you work in, as the tip says, such as abstract, botanical or portrait, so the canvases match it.

Also watch for

Your hands look odd holding the brush. Ask for a relaxed grip with one brush, and regenerate if the fingers are wrong.
The apron is too clean. Ask for dried paint marks and a smudge on one hand, so it looks like real work.

Try a variation: use your real artwork

Upload a photo of one of your own paintings as a second image and ask for it on the easel in front of you.

Still not right? Reply with this

Keep my face and the studio. Make a second version where I step back from the canvas to look at the work.
