Another Midjourney exploration, this is an extension to the Silk & Stone series but this time I mixed my prompts with both Renaissance and Baroque style qualities. In addition, I generalised the silk draping to a more generic approach of any fabric, this was in hope that the AI would then treat the fabric in any direction and manner it saw fit rath...

Baroque greats like Bernini, Borromini and Guarini came to mind when trying multiple prompts but the one that gave me the best response from the AI was...
