Style Transfer

image

Applying the visual style of one image (or a named aesthetic) to different content — your photo redrawn as a watercolor, an anime frame, or a vintage film still. Modern models do it via image-to-image with a style prompt, or with a style reference image that guides colors, brushwork, and mood. The skill lies in balance: too strong and you lose the subject's identity, too weak and nothing visibly changes. Example: feed a product photo plus the prompt 'Japanese woodblock print style' to create packaging art that stays recognizably your product.
