Exploring Amazing Colors For Midjourney AI Art

In this post, we will continue our exploration of various color words in the realm of AI art. We'll explore different colors, their impact on generated images, and their associations with specific subjects. The images in this video were created using Mid-Journey, the latest version 5 of the AI model. To generate version 5 images, you can add "--V5" to your prompt or select version 5 from the settings menu.

Experimenting with Color Words

When experimenting with AI prompts, I typically use short phrases or words to observe their impact on the generated images. In this video, I've prompted each color word on its own and followed it with various subjects, such as landscapes, wildlife, macro, city, interior, architecture, portrait, fantasy, and sci-fi. Additionally, I've incorporated negative prompts to create better-looking images.

It's important to note that the generated images are meant to provide a rough idea of the AI model's interpretation of the given words. For comparison purposes, I've used the same seed number throughout the prompts (--seed 777).
