Prompt

A lighthouse on a cliff at dawn, loose watercolor on textured paper, soft washes of peach and teal, gulls in the distance.

Step 1

Describe the picture

Say what is in it, where it is and the medium. Light and colour words ("dawn", "peach and teal") do a lot of the work.

Step 2

Generate and compare

Pick a frame shape, generate, and look at the result at full size. Not right yet? Change the medium or the light and run it again.

Step 3

Download or refine

Download the piece in high resolution, or open it in the AI Photo Editor to change one detail without starting over.

Name the medium, get the texture

Name the medium, get the texture

Paper grain in watercolor, ridges of paint in impasto, crisp pixels in pixel art. The medium word in your prompt decides how the whole image is built, not just a filter on top.

  • Watercolor, oil, gouache, ink
  • Pixel art and low-poly 3D
  • Woodblock, linocut, collage

Ask for "pixel art" or "32-bit game style" and get a clean pixel scene for wallpapers, game mock-ups or stream overlays. To turn a photo into pixel art instead, use the AI Pixel Art Generator.

  • Clean, readable pixels
  • Photo to pixel art template

FAQ

AI art generator FAQ

Is the AI art generator free?+

Signing up is free and comes with free credits to try it. Each run shows its price on the Generate button before anything is charged.

What styles can it make?+

Any medium you can describe: watercolor, oil, gouache, ink wash, pencil, pixel art, woodblock print, low-poly 3D, paper collage and more. Put the medium in the prompt, e.g. "loose watercolor on textured paper".

How do I write a good AI art prompt?+

Subject, setting, medium, light. "A lighthouse on a cliff at dawn, loose watercolor, peach and teal" beats "a nice beach painting". Change one part at a time to see what it does.

Can I make pixel art?+

Yes. Ask for "pixel art" or a "16-bit / 32-bit game style" scene. If you want your own photo turned into pixel art, use the AI Pixel Art Generator template; the pixel art guide has more tips.

Can I use the art commercially?+

Images you generate are yours to use under LazyKiwi's terms, including prints and products. Do not prompt for other people's characters, logos or a living artist's name.

Can I start from my own picture?+

Yes. Add a reference image in the generator to steer the composition or palette, or use Image to Image to restyle a photo.

What sizes can I download?+

Square, portrait or landscape (1:1, 3:4, 4:3, 9:16, 16:9) in high resolution, good for wallpapers, posters and posts.

Can I edit one part of the picture afterwards?+

Yes. Open the result in the AI Photo Editor and describe the change, e.g. "make the sky stormy", instead of regenerating the whole piece.
