Turn AI Images Into Patterns (+ Tips on Best Prompt Techniques)

Introduction

In recent months, the potential of AI in generating stunning source material for pattern design has become increasingly apparent. While many creators have experimented with AI pattern generators, there’s a unique advantage in using general-purpose AI generators. In my experience, this method allows for the creation of beautiful, rich geometric patterns, especially when crafting pattern collections. In this article, we’ll delve into tips and tricks for achieving the best results in transforming AI images into patterns.

Exploring AI Tools

Hi there, dear friends! Michelle here from Repper. Today, we’ll focus on the art of making patterns from AI-generated images. For this demonstration, I'm using Leonardo AI, which I’ve found to be one of my favorite generators after thorough testing. With Leonardo, you receive 150 credits that renew every 10 hours, allowing you to make a substantial number of images for free.

While the tips I’ll share can be applied to various AI generators, let's get started with writing effective prompts.

Crafting Effective Prompts

A general rule of thumb for Leonardo is that it prioritizes the beginning of your prompt. When it comes to pattern design, it’s crucial to have images in a suitable style. I focus on ensuring my images possess the correct colors and textures and avoid excessive detail. I typically start my prompts emphasizing styles such as:

• Watercolor painting
• Woodcut print
• African tribal art

After specifying the style, I include details regarding colors and lighting, followed by the subject or any other specifics.

To help you with prompts, I’ve compiled an extensive list of styles that work wonderfully for pattern design. You can find a link to the full list in the description below, which will surely inspire new explorations and creativity.

Image Size Matters

When generating images, I recommend exploring larger sizes. Although this may consume more credits, higher-resolution source images yield better quality patterns. If you require a larger resolution file, consider utilizing an online upscaler, which is also linked below.

Showcase and Wrap-Up

In the conclusion of this article, I will showcase some captivating patterns created using AI, detailing the source images and prompts employed.
