Square artwork for releases, built around one strong image rather than a stock photo.
Concept development
Explore the look of a character, place or mood early, before committing to a direction.

How it works
From a sentence to a finished piece
- 01
Describe the artwork
Write what the picture shows — the subject, the setting, the mood and the light. Concrete detail gives you a stronger first result than adjectives alone.
- 02
Choose a medium and format
Pick an artistic direction such as oil painting, watercolour or concept art, then choose the aspect ratio that suits where the piece will hang or be published.
- 03
Generate, refine and download
Generate the artwork, adjust the prompt to change the palette, composition or medium, then download the version you want from your history.
FAQ
Questions about AI art
What is an AI art generator?
It turns a written description into an original artwork. You describe the subject, setting and mood, choose an artistic direction such as oil painting or concept art, and the image is generated from that brief — so you get a piece made for your idea rather than something found in a library.
Can I generate art in a specific artist's style?
This page is built around movements, media and moods rather than imitating a named living artist. Describing what you actually want — the medium, the brushwork, the palette, the light, the mood — steers the result more reliably than a name, and it keeps your work clear of someone else's signature style.
Which aspect ratios work best for art?
Square 1:1 suits album covers and social posts, 4:5 and 9:16 suit prints and phone art, and 3:2 and 16:9 suit wide landscape pieces. This page sends your chosen ratio straight into the generator, and you can change it there at any time.
Can I use a reference image?
Yes. Upload an image in the panel above and it travels into the generator as a visual reference, which is useful when you want to carry over a composition, palette or mood. You need to be signed in to upload, and files are limited to 20MB.
Can I sell or print what I generate?
Under the imageat terms of service you own the images you generate and imageat does not claim ownership of them. What you can do commercially still depends on your plan and on the terms, and AI output is not cleared for trademarks or likenesses, so review the terms of service before selling prints or using a piece commercially.
How do I get a more interesting result?
Change one thing at a time. Swap the medium, move the subject in the frame, change the light source, or pin the palette to two or three colours. Each run gives you another interpretation, and everything stays in your history so you can compare them side by side.
How is this different from the illustration generator?
Both open the same image generator, but they are set up for different work. This page is built around fine-art media and moods — painting, surrealism, concept art, abstraction. The illustration generator is built around commissioned illustration for stories, editorial pieces, brands and products.
Rights and permitted use are governed by the imageat terms of service. AI-generated images are not checked for trademarks or likenesses, so take your own advice before selling prints or using a piece commercially.
