Observations

Across all four renders, the style is fully abstract and driven by energetic, highly visible paint handling: broad impasto strokes, scraping, dragging, drips, and overlapping gestural marks. Saturated turquoise, red, white, coral, and near-black passages create a vivid, high-contrast surface with strong directional movement and dense tactile layering.

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 .
