Overview:
The Impressionistic Surrealism LoRA is a powerful artistic model trained primarily on Pony models, but is fully compatible with both Illustrious and SDXL ecosystems. This LoRA blends the expressive softness of impressionist brushwork with the vivid, dreamlike compositions of surrealist storytelling. The result is a genre-defying visual experience — a world that feels simultaneously painterly and otherworldly.
Artistic Style:
The hallmark of Impressionistic Surrealism lies in its ability to merge two traditionally distinct aesthetics:
From Impressionism, it inherits glowing colors, fluid lighting, and rich atmospheric presence. Scenes shimmer with the illusion of motion and time.
From Surrealism, it borrows dream logic, fantastical perspectives, and juxtapositions that feel lifted from memory or dreams.
The fusion creates images like the example above — painterly landscapes with exaggerated seasonal hues, graceful abstraction, and an uncanny sense of place.
How to Use It:
This LoRA is most effective when prompted with both a season and a context keyword. For instance:
"impressionisticsurrealism, autumn, scenery, no humans"
"impressionisticsurrealism, spring, 1girl, outdoors"
"impressionisticsurrealism, winter, city, car"
Using a low CFG (0.25–0.9) allows the model's surreal, imaginative core to breathe, while the Euler or DPM++2M samplers provide the right balance of texture and dreamlike detail. With sampling steps at 15 or higher, you'll get enhanced light diffusion and smoother gradients.
Experimental Tips:
Try combining surreal elements like floating architecture or oversized flora with the seasonal palette.
Add emotional descriptors like melancholy, tranquil, or ethereal to further push narrative nuance.
Animate transitions between seasons for a time-lapse effect using interpolation or frame blending tools.
Final Notes:
Impressionistic Surrealism is ideal for creating visual storytelling pieces, backdrops for animation, or art that explores the boundaries between nature, memory, and imagination. Whether you're rendering fantastical forests or quiet city streets in snowfall, this LoRA offers a deeply atmospheric lens through which to reimagine the world.
