Shapes with a point of view
See a familiar subject through interlocking shapes and several viewpoints at once. A face, a guitar or a harbour becomes a painted arrangement of angles, colour and recognisable details. Upload a reference or describe your subject, then explore the quieter earth tones of analytical Cubism or the larger colour blocks of synthetic Cubism.
Cubist studies
How it works
Upload a photo or name a subject with a distinctive silhouette. A face, a musical instrument, a pet or a small group of objects gives the geometric treatment something recognisable to work with.
Add analytical Cubism for smaller planes and earth colours, or synthetic Cubism for larger shapes and clearer colour blocks. Generate one square painted interpretation.
Check whether the most useful contours still read clearly, then save the result. For another study, keep the subject and change the palette or the size of the shapes in your prompt.
What makes it Cubist
A profile and a frontal feature can coexist in one portrait. Objects may show their top and side together, turning a single viewpoint into a more layered painted arrangement.
Use analytical Cubism for closely interlocking facets and restrained earth tones. Use synthetic Cubism for broader, cut-paper-like painted shapes and more distinct areas of colour.
The guitar's sound hole, a cat's ears or a hat's brim can anchor the composition. Naming these defining details helps the image keep a connection to your original idea.
Prompt ideas
Choose a subject and a limited palette, then name analytical or synthetic Cubism if you have a preference. A long inventory of tiny objects can make the planes harder to read.
A guitar, a round jug and two pears on a small table, analytical Cubism, overlapping views of the tabletop and sound hole, ochre, grey-blue and cream.
A thoughtful person in a blue hat and olive jacket, a frontal eye and a side-view nose in one painted face, sage, indigo and ivory planes.
A compact harbour of stacked houses, a lighthouse and sailboats, synthetic Cubism, large terracotta, teal and ivory shapes with readable roofs and sails.
Ways to explore
Reinterpret a familiar face through shape and viewpoint. Try a close portrait with a distinctive hairstyle, collar or hat.
Generate analytical and synthetic versions of the same subject to compare how palette and plane size change the composition.
Explore a graphic image for a playlist, a booklet or a creative project. Add typography separately when the composition is ready.
Name colours from a room or a moodboard to develop an image that fits the surrounding palette. Check the downloaded dimensions before planning a print.
