DOC.01What defines this style

Thrown arcs, flying white and chance droplets animate the figure.

Splashed-ink portraiture draws on expressive East Asian ink practices that welcome thrown liquid, dry-brush flying white and chance stains as active marks. Sudden arcs and scattered droplets create movement for performance posters, book covers and experimental portrait series.

Use it for

  • Performance event posters
  • Literary book covers
  • Experimental portrait series

Practical notes

  1. In ChatGPT, request isolated thrown droplets if the result settles into a conventional soft ink wash.
  2. Use Midjourney chaos sparingly, then reroll before raising it when facial anchors disappear.
  3. In Stable Diffusion, preserve flying-white gaps while repairing the eyes with a small mask.
