How to Apply Artistic Generative AI Filters on Your Images with Astria.ai

Imagine transforming your photos into captivating works of art, like this watercolor portrait:

Or, like a bold oil painting filter:

Generative AI filters make these artistic transformations possible, allowing you to recreate your images in a variety of styles. With Astria.ai, you can achieve this artistic transformation with ease.

Generative AI filters are essentially digital tools that use artificial intelligence to apply artistic styles to your images. They take your original photo and, based on your chosen filter, recreate it in a new artistic style. Platforms like Etsy are teeming with artists selling rendered images, demonstrating the growing popularity of this art form.

Here’s how you can apply these artistic filters using Astria.ai:

Step 1: Create a Fine-Tune

To begin, create a fine-tune of your image. This involves training the AI model to recognize and understand the unique features of your chosen image. I recommend using the FaceID method for simplicity. It requires just a couple of images to create a powerful fine-tune.

Step 2. Apply the Filter

Once your fine-tune is ready, follow these steps:

• Control Net Hint: Select “Line Art — Edges” from the ControlNet Hint dropdown menu. This helps the AI accurately apply the filter while retaining the image’s structure.

• Prompt Engineering: Craft a prompt describing the artistic filter you want. For example: “Apply a watercolor filter with soft edges and vibrant, but slightly muted, colors to give the scenery a dreamy and impressionistic look.”

Step 3. Explore Different Artistic Filters

Experiment with various filters to achieve different effects using a range of prompts:
