# What is the difference between different art styles (photorealistic, anime, oil painting)?

Photorealistic: Mimics real-world photography with accurate lighting, skin textures, and depth of field — ideal for product shots, portraits, and architectural renders. Anime: Japanese animation style with bold outlines, stylized proportions, and vibrant flat colors — great for character art and illustrations. Oil painting: Thick visible brushstrokes, rich color depth, and traditional canvas texture — perfect for portraits and landscapes with a classical fine-art feel. Simply include the style name in your prompt, and you can blend styles (e.g., 'anime character in an oil painting background').
