Observations

Across all four renders, saturated cobalt blue, orange, red, and black create a forceful high-contrast palette. Faces, figures, flowers, birds, and mushrooms are built from dense expressive strokes, heavy contour lines, and visibly ridged paint texture, with ornamental patterned backgrounds and tightly cropped portrait compositions.

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 .
