Stained Glass rebuilds your subject as a window of colored glass: jewel-toned panes of ruby, sapphire, emerald and amber, bold dark lead lines holding every piece together, and sunlight glowing through from behind so the colors burn. Faint bubbles and ripples in the glass keep it handmade, and the design stays balanced and radiant, like a window you would stop to look at.
You write the subject; the style supplies the glass. It is at its best with clear, iconic shapes: a lighthouse throwing its beam over the sea, a cat curled among flowers, a heron in reeds, someone reading beneath an arched window. The style keeps the outfit and details you wrote, translated into panes of glass.
Use it for posters and prints, book and album covers, fantasy illustrations, window-film and glass designs, home decor and seasonal cards. For gilded cards with ornate borders, use Tarot Gilt; for the chalky texture of old walls, Fresco Dust; for sleek geometric night scenes, Deco Nocturne.
For this composition, we recommend 2:3, with 3:4 as another framing option. This style is text-to-image only: on uploaded photos, the models we tested kept the photo and simply added a window behind it, so describe your subject in words instead. Landscapes, pets and flowers are especially beautiful in glass.
Subjects to paste as they are: “a lighthouse on a cliff with waves below and a full moon”, “a heron standing among tall reeds and water lilies”, “a woman in a flowing green dress holding a basket of lemons”. Bold, simple shapes give the lead lines something to follow.
Finishes that work on top: Golden Hour for warm sunset light pouring through the glass.
