The prompt

Prompt

A loose watercolor seascape painting of a whitewashed clifftop lighthouse at first dawn, the tower painted as a single wet vertical wash of warm white and pale grey with a single narrow black band, a soft peach and lavender sky as a graded wet-on-wet wash, a calm sea below in horizontal streaks of cerulean and payne's grey, low mist rolling along the cliff edge as a diluted white band, a few quick brushstroke gulls as dark commas, wild grass on the cliff top as loose green flicks, granulating pigment along the cliff rock, white paper reserved for the lighthouse light, no text, no signature, no frame

How to use this prompt

  1. 1

    Open the generator that matches the model and version above, and start a new image rather than editing an existing one.

  2. 2

    Set the output to 2:3 and apply the settings shown in the parameters panel — together those produced the 516 × 768 image on this page.

  3. 3

    Paste the prompt exactly as written. Changing the wording changes the image, so copy it before you edit.

  4. 4

    Paste the negative prompt into the separate negative field; this entry was tested with one.

  5. 5

    Generate, then change one thing at a time. The result will not be pixel-identical to the image on this page, because no seed is recorded for it.

Stable Diffusion exposes the sampler, step count, and CFG scale as separate settings, and this entry uses all three. If you are trying to reproduce this image, match the sampler name exactly and keep the step count and CFG as recorded — they are part of the recipe, not decoration.
