## About this style

Atomized spray alternately softens and tightens edges, while drips, overpainting and sweeping lines record quick gestures. Intense color masses weave through bold outlines.

Spray edges, overspray and overlapping strokes reveal distance and speed.

A bright arc crossing an older black line, with a small drip beside it, suggests successive physical gestures.

### How the style changes different subjects

- **Portrait**: Sprayed color shapes with soft overspray or stencil breaks intensify facial and clothing forms.

- **Landscape**: Walls and landmarks flatten into rough color layers with strong silhouettes and urban texture.

- **Object**: Objects resemble sprayed or stenciled images, with reflections replaced by bold, granular color.

**Subjects**: Choose strong portraits, urban buildings, sneakers, skateboards or simple objects distinct from the spray texture.

## Reusable style prompt

```text
Redraw the subject with rough spray-painted color blocks, sweeping gestures, and bold outer contours. Give edges atomized paint particles, localized drips, and traces of repeated spraying. Use rich colors and lines that cross, intertwine, and curl with rapid gestural tension. Keep key contours recognizable. Vary paint thickness and coverage naturally, preserving speed and roughness rather than the tidy uniformity of vector art.
