British painter Winifred Knights (1899-1947) is known for her detailed and realistic depictions of the human figure and is particularly recognized for her use of colors and the play of light and shadow to create a sense of volume. She was a member of the New English Art Club and was part of the British avant-garde of the early 20th century.
Winifred Knights' Midjourney style is fantastic for highly-stylized portrait (and not only!) paintings permeated by the sense of longing.

Hilma af Klint (1862-1944) was a Swedish pioneer in abstract art. She is known for creating a series of paintings called the "Paintings for the Temple," produced in the early 20th century before the advent of abstract art as it is commonly understood. Himla af Klint was a member of a group of artists known as "The Five," who were interested in spiritualism and theosophy.
Klint's Midjourney generations are beautiful geometrical abstractions mixed with semi-realistic subjects (if lucky :)). Elegant bright colors, fine lines, and play with symmetry are the principal features in generations with Hilma af Klint's name in prompts.

Beeple (born in 1981) is the pseudonym of the American digital artist and graphic designer Mike Winkelmann. Mike uses a wide range of digital tools to create his artworks: abstract and surreal landscapes, animations, and generative designs.
Beeple's Midjourney style is a true finding for those into epic sci-fi illustrations, perfectly capturing the massive scale of the scenes, rendered in vibrant colors, and filled with an otherworldly, slightly surreal atmosphere.

One of the most important and influential artists of the Chinese contemporary art scene, Fang Lijun (b. 1963) is most famous for his images of bald men—often depicted in large groups, in a variety of settings and poses, often in a humorous and satirical way.
Midjourney generations with his name inherit Fang Lijun's expressive brushstrokes, the use of a deep, contrasty color pallet, and weird, borderline creepy characters.

Throughout his long and productive career, Italian artist, designer, and writer Bruno Munari (1907-1998) contributed generously to the fields of graphic and industrial design, as well as... children's literature! He was a key member of the Italian Futurist movement with a focus on experimentation and play in his artwork. His other passion was illustrations and children's books, which are considered masterpieces in the field of children's literature.

Iwona Lifsches is a contemporary painter with roots in Poland. Her works reflect a Naive Art style characterized by a childlike innocence in subject, shape, and color. She creates fabulously colorful paintings that depict simple and idealized scenes of everyday life with a touch of melancholy and humor.
One of the best representatives of the Naive Art movement in Midjourney, Iwona Lifsches' style is bright, simple yet detailed illustrations great for magically charged fairy tale scenes.
