Observations

The style is a childlike illustrative drawing language built from simple outlined forms, sparse compositions, and occasional flat red, yellow, or black coloring. Fine uneven lines, rough crayon or pencil texture, whimsical animals and landscapes, and deliberately naive proportions recur across the renders, giving the images a cute, surreal, expressive character.

Earlier versions

Same code, different picture. Midjourney changed how it reads SREF codes after V6.1, so V8.2 turns this code into a new style. The old one still works: add  or .
