🔹 Made with my own Painterly Style LoRA inspired by the early style of Andrew Wyeth's watercolours.

My Notes

🔹 Painterly style is one of my favourite art styles, so made my first LoRA with this in mind. Dataset created with my own digital art creations, utilising open source images for inspiration.
🔹 This is my First attempt at trying animals with my Painterly LoRA and am thrilled with the results! I love palomino horses. Palomino is a genetic colouring of horses but unlike other horse breeds, the Haflinger is always palomino coloured.
