Prompt: Prompt by jexiq q: <<Masterpiece>>: Scene: Impasto, Glazing and Mixing Palette Knife Techniques: "Urban Breath"
Foreground: A ginger-haired girl in an oversized denim jacket sits on a skateboard, hunched over with her elbows resting on her knees. Her eyes are hidden beneath a hood, but her cheeks are flushed from the wind. Strands of copper hair escape the hood, glowing in the breeze. She holds a small, vintage camera in her hands—an old, chewed thread bracelet hangs loosely from her wrist. In front of her, a crushed soda can and the word “Breathe” written in chalk.
Middle ground: The concrete wall behind her is covered in a mural created in palette knife style—abstract shapes, bursts of color, neon accents. A graffiti message reads: “Life is not a filter.” Streetlamp shadows fall diagonally, spilling golden lines across her back and the skateboard’s wheels.
Background: The city skyline at dawn—tall buildings catching the first morning light. Through glazing layers, the warmth of the haze and diffused light pulses through windows. A tram crosses a distant bridge. On one rooftop, colorful flags flutter—remnants of a street gathering that still refuses to fade.
Color palette: Muted grays, bluish tones, and rust-orange in the background, with accents of copper, gold, and red on the girl. The impasto texture of the mural contrasts the softness of the morning light, creating rich, emotional depth.
Atmosphere: A silent urban poem. The city pulses quietly, while the girl captures a moment of stillness—like she’s archiving the last breath before something important begins.
Prompt: Prompt by jexiq q: <<Masterpiece>>: Scene Description: Encaustic Technique: Foreground: in the foreground depicts an old wooden table with lavender. The texture of the table is achieved through thick, layered application, with prominent knots and brushstrokes that create the feeling of aged wood. On the table, there is a glass vase containing purple lavender branches, carefully applied using the “encaustic glazing” technique, where the colors are layered with transparent coats allowing certain parts of the branches to subtly spill over and reflect light. The lavender on the table is rich in color, and the texture of the flowers is created by gently applying wax and carefully pressing fine lines that mimic the leaves and petals. In the background of the table, smoke rising from a pot is created with wet wax, where dark gray and light white tones are blended to create an elusive, soft effect. Middle Ground: The lavender in the middle ground covers the entire field. The wax technique here utilizes thick application and smearing of color using modeling tools. Through the wax structure, paths of footsteps are shaped with different shades of lavender, creating a subtle light-and-shadow effect. The lavender is depicted in rich purple and golden tones, where the wax is applied in layers and smoothed to give an illusion of depth and texture. Meanwhile, the effect of light and color in the clouds of the sky is achieved through the “encaustic glazing” technique, creating translucent layers of color. Each hue in the sky is applied with precision to achieve a smooth transition and delicate shades that stand out in the light of the lavender. Background: In the background, the horizon is bathed in the golden light of the setting sun. Wax is used in layered applications to create depth and distance. The distant hills are painted with fine transitions from dark grays to light golden tones, all achieved with a larger brush that leaves textured marks on the wax.
Prompt: Prompt by jexiq q: Scene in Mixed Palette Knife and Impasto Techniques: I imagine a scene of a middle-aged couple's breakup, created with Mixing Palette Knife and Impasto techniques: Foreground: On a dark wooden table, two cups of coffee stand, but one has been pushed to the edge, with spilled coffee creating shimmering reflections on the table. This part of the scene is painted using Impasto technique, with thick strokes emphasizing the gravity of the moment. A half-crumpled napkin lies between the cups, painted with Mixing Palette Knife, capturing its wrinkled edges and the awkward tension hanging in the air. Midground: The couple sits at the table. The man, in a suit with graying hair, looks away, avoiding her gaze. His face, rendered in Impasto, shows lines of weariness and sadness, emphasizing the depth of emotion. The woman, in a black sweater with her arms gently crossed, stares into empty space, clearly distressed. Her eyes, carefully painted, express disappointment, while her hair partially covers her face, created with Mixing Palette Knife to represent her complex inner world. Background: Through the café window, a sunset is visible, with the sky in shades of orange and purple, done in Mixing Palette Knife to highlight the shifting light, symbolizing the end of a chapter in their lives. In the distance, a busy street full of cars and people, but they remain distant, lost in their own world of silence and parting. Light: Soft light from a tall lamp casts muted shadows on their faces, illuminating the space between them, as if highlighting all that remains unsaid. This blend of warm yet cold light tones brings the drama of the scene to the forefront, while reflections from the cups and table merge into subtle hues.
Prompt: Prompt by jexiq q: <<Masterpiece>>: Scene: Impasto, Glazing and Mixing Palette Knife Techniques: “Ginger Girl and the Rainy Window”
A ginger-haired young woman sits by a large window on a rainy evening.
Her curls spill over her shoulders like wet copper threads, painted in bold impasto strokes with palette knife — thick, textured, alive.
Raindrops stream down the glass, each one done with delicate glazing, catching the glow of city lights outside — blurred neon pinks, soft blues, and golden reflections that seem to melt into each other.
She rests her chin on her hand, eyes wide and thoughtful, looking through the watery glass as if trying to read the future written in the drops. Her lips — full and slightly parted — carry a hint of unspoken words.
The room around her is dim, painted with earthy tones in rough textures, so her fiery hair and luminous skin stand out even more — almost like a beacon against the gray night.
In the reflection on the window, her face appears doubled: one real, one blurred — a quiet metaphor of her inner world, painted with glazing so thin that it feels like smoke on glass.
The whole scene balances between solitude and tenderness, as if the rain is keeping her company in silence.

Prompt: In that transitional moment between light and darkness, when a solar eclipse occurs, the world is immersed in a spectacular play of light and shadows. The moon stands as an unwavering guardian between the Earth and the Sun, while the eyes of the world eagerly turn to the sky.
A breathtaking scene unfolds in the heavens above. The Sun, usually bright and relentless, is now veiled by the dark shadow of the Moon, leaving behind only a subtle outline of its radiance. The mist of darkness spreads, permeating the world around it.
In this magical moment, nature undergoes a transformation. Shadows begin to play their mysterious game upon the earth, creating unreal patterns and shapes. Trees turn into dark silhouettes, while birds retreat to hidden places, consumed by unspeakable fear.
Surreality is in full swing. The sky becomes a fluid canvas on which fantastical images are created. An irregular ring of bright sunlight extends above the horizon, creating a picture that is simultaneously beautiful and eerie. Surprising sunset colors blend with the dark shadow of the Moon, creating an effect that defies description.
In that moment, as the world faces its fears and wonders, people feel small and powerless. The solar eclipse reminds them of the vast power of the cosmos, of the force of nature that is beyond their control. It is a moment when humanity confronts its fears and simultaneously discovers its deep connection to the universe.

Foreground – On a frozen pond, a lone skater glides across the thin layer of ice, leaving behind faint traces that slowly fade into the icy surface. His cloak, deep blue and heavy, billows with his movement, while his hand gently brushes the air. Here, wax creates a smooth and semi-transparent texture of the ice, with reflections of the night sky breaking in delicate cracks. Middle ground – The wind lifts fine snow particles from the surface, making them look like white sparks trapped in the air. Around the pond, bare elms stretch their stiff branches, their wax-sculpted relief resembling ancient engravings. Every leaf that once belonged to these branches is now frozen beneath the ice, visible through semi-transparent layers of wax. Background – The sky is immersed in deep indigo, but somewhere beyond the horizon, moonlight spills gentle golden tones. On a distant hill, a small stone cottage casts a dim glow through its windows, while smoke from the chimney drifts upward, merging with the clouds. The wax technique allows the light to seep through the windows, leaving a soft reflection on the snowy slope. Wax Effect – This scene uses wax to create a play of reflections, translucency, and blur, where light and shadows weave their own story. The icy surfaces are smooth and glossy, while the trees are rough and sharp, creating a contrast between coldness and warmth.

Lighting: Golden hour through dusty atelier windows
Mood: Stillness with vibrant undercurrents
Inside an old music atelier, bathed in the warm golden light of late afternoon, stands a young ginger-haired girl — her hair cascading in fiery waves, as if dipped in honey and flame. She gazes at an old piano, hands hovering above the keys, but she doesn’t play. It’s the moment before the sound, the breath before creation — silence, heavy with meaning.
The background is rich with impasto layers: scattered sheet music on the floor, a worn chair whose frame sighs with age, and walls washed in glazed tones of grey, green, and faded gold. A side window casts a lace-like shadow across the floor and over her bare feet — delicate, yet firmly grounded.
Her skin is pale, almost translucent in the light, with a subtle blush across her cheeks, as if painted by a palette knife — textured but soft, like breath on glass. There’s a hint of sorrow in her eyes, not the kind that breaks, but the kind that builds art.
Above her, on a shelf — dried flowers, wooden mannequins, books on Dvořák and Chopin, all blurred behind a glazed layer of time.
She doesn’t play —
but the silence plays her.

Prompt: Prompt by jexiq q: <<Masterpiece>>: Scene: Impasto, Glazing and Mixing Palette Knife Techniques: “When Rain Falls Inside”
Color Palette: Misty greys, pale lilac, rain-washed teal and soft ochre. Her hair – fiery orange – breaks through the cold composition like a memory of the sun.
She sits on the kitchen floor, knees pulled to her chest, wearing a long oversized sweater that's swallowed by brushstrokes of soft impasto texture – heavy, comforting, almost sculpted from quiet.
Outside, the rain beats softly against the wide frosted window, streaking the glass with liquid silver. Through glazing, the scene outside blurs into abstraction – as if the world beyond her no longer matters.
A single lightbulb hangs above, humming faintly. Its glow melts down her cheeks, catching tears she doesn’t bother to hide. Her hair – wild, damp, clinging to her face – is painted with bold palette knife strokes, each curl defying the stillness.
On the floor beside her, an open journal lies unread, pages warping from the nearby puddle she didn’t notice forming. Her hand rests loosely on it, fingers stained with graphite and color – like she tried to draw her way out of sorrow, but gave up mid-line.
On the stove behind her, a tea kettle whistles, ignored. The steam spirals into the room, a ghostly presence hovering over the silence, merging with the rain and breath and unsaid things.
There’s no movement – only feeling, rendered in heavy textures and translucent washes of sadness and warmth.
Prompt: Prompt by jexiq q: <<Masterpiece>>: Scene: Impasto, Glazing and Mixing Palette Knife Techniques: “Reflection from the River”
At the edge of a concrete embankment, a ginger-haired woman sits alone, her legs hanging above the slow river.
The water is murky but still, holding everything that has ever sunk into it.
Her face appears on the surface that shivers with the wind — sometimes clear, sometimes scattered into circles.
(Glazing: soft, translucent layers to show the trembling water surface and its play of light.)
The river doesn’t return the truth — only what you’re ready to see.
(Mixing Palette Knife: gentle blending between her real features and their distorted reflection, merging water and identity.)
Beneath the surface, shadows drift — and her reflection shifts each time her breath reaches the water.
(Impasto: thicker, tactile strokes around the ripples, giving the illusion of depth and movement.)
Light spreads across her face, until she seems to dissolve into the river itself.
(Glazing again: thin veils of golden tones, melting skin into water.)
For a moment, the wind erases everything.
Only she remains — and the thought that was never spoken aloud.
(Mixing Palette Knife + Glazing: scraped layers of reflection fading into transparent silence.)

The shadows are subtle, with the palette knife technique used to emphasize the contrasts between light and dark. The details, such as the small droplets of water on the window and the steam rising from the coff
Prompt: In the style of Alyssa Monks, the painting comes to life through an extraordinary play of light and shadows that creates an atmosphere of intimacy and emotional depth. The scene may depict a portrait or figure positioned in a way that expresses intimacy and the inner state of the character.
The character's face reflects the richness of skin tones, and Alyssa Monks often explores how light shapes and defines the facial structure. Shadows and highlights create a sense of depth and texture, emphasizing every detail and expressing the emotional nuances of the face.
If a figure is depicted, every muscle and part of the body is expressed in details that reflect anatomical precision. The body's position and movements convey reality and the fluidity of motion.
Alyssa Monks often uses water as an element that adds complexity to the painting. It can be seen that light passes through the water, creating distortions and effects that add an additional dimension to the scene.
The light in the painting creates a play of shadows and reflections, adding depth and atmosphere. Colors are carefully chosen to preserve harmony and balance in the composition.
In Alyssa Monks' art, the painting can have a sense of a frozen moment, where details blend with reality, creating an intensely emotional experience for the observer.
Prompt: Prompt by jexiq q: <<Masterpiece>>: Scene: Impasto and Mixing Palette Knife Techniques: The Girl with the Sketchpad on the Tram.
Techniques: Impasto (hair and drawing), Glazing (windows and light), Mixing Palette Knife (city in motion). In the foreground, a girl with a golden-brown braid and light freckles across her nose sits by the window of an old tram. On her lap, she holds a small sketchpad—drawing is her therapy. Her Impasto-painted sage-colored jacket, layered thickly, seems to carry the weight of her thoughts. Through the window, the city lights blur as the tram moves—buildings, billboards, car lights—all rendered with brisk Mixing Palette Knife strokes, adding energy and motion to the urban chaos. Glazing light layers dance across her face and the sketchpad as she draws something only she understands—perhaps her own portrait, perhaps a dream. And as the tram glides, she finds silence between the sounds.
Prompt: Prompt by jexiq q: Masterpiece: Scene Description in Mixed Palette Knife, Impasto, Sfumato Techniques: A Foggy Morning in the Countryside. On a canvas filled with shades of gray and blue, fog blankets a vast rural valley. In the Mixing Palette Knife technique, the foreground features an old wooden gate, cracked with age, with traces of moss peeking through the mist. The texture of the wood is sharp and rugged, with every crack telling its own story. In the middle ground, using the Impasto technique, an old house with a roof of red tiles emerges from the fog. Smoke slowly rises from the chimney, adding warm tones of brown and orange that blend into the cool ambiance. The windows of the house are fogged up, and the door is slightly ajar, as if waiting for someone to step inside. In the background, depicted with the Sfumato technique, hills veiled in mist merge seamlessly with the gray sky. Barely visible silhouettes of trees appear almost ethereal, while the golden glow of the sun attempts to break through the clouds, creating soft transitions of light. The entire canvas exudes silence but also a sense of warmth—a scene where the peace of nature meets the quiet traces of human life.
Prompt: We can imagine a scene where there is a spacious meadow covered with colorful flowers, and at the center of attention is an old, rustic wooden bench. Sitting on the bench is an elderly man, holding a book firmly in his hand, while his gaze wanders into the distance. Sunlight gently illuminates the scene, casting warm shadows over the grass. In the background, there is an old, majestic oak forest, which gives a sense of peace and stability. Birds fly through the sky, and occasionally, the sound of a stream flowing through the forest can be heard. This scene evokes a sense of nostalgia and inner peace, taking us on a journey through natural beauty and tranquility.
Prompt: Prompt by jexiq q: <<Masterpiece>>: Scene: Chiaroscuro, Cinematic Realism, Glazing, Impasto, Sfumato, and Neon Glow Technique: A Neon Rain in the City. Foreground (Chiaroscuro & Impasto):A man leans against a rain-slicked lamppost, the harsh glow above casting sharp shadows across his angular face (Chiaroscuro). His long coat is damp, the fabric catching the neon reflections of the street signs, each brushstroke thick and deliberate (Impasto). A cigarette burns between his fingers, the ember flickering like a firefly in the misty downpour, its smoke curling and vanishing into the night. Middle Ground (Cinematic Realism & Sfumato): A narrow street stretches into the distance, its pavement glistening from the recent rain, blurred figures moving beneath umbrellas (Cinematic Realism). The headlights of a distant car pierce through the drizzle, creating a hazy glow that softens the edges of the surrounding buildings (Sfumato). A woman in a trench coat walks past, her silhouette dissolving into the mist, her heels clicking against the wet asphalt like a rhythmic echo of the city’s pulse. Background (Glazing & Cinematic Realism): Towering buildings loom in the distance, their windows reflecting fragmented neon lights that shimmer like liquid fire (Glazing). A flickering neon sign buzzes overhead, its red and violet glow dripping onto the puddles below, painting the street with surreal hues (Cinematic Realism). The sound of distant sirens weaves into the hum of the night, blending with the soft patter of rain and the occasional laughter escaping from a hidden alleyway café.
Prompt: Prompt by jexiq q: <<Masterpiece>>: Scene: Impasto and Mixing Palette Knife Techniques: On the Bench by the River.
Techniques: Mixing Palette Knife (background and water), Impasto (hair and clothing), Glazing (reflections on skin and eyes). In the foreground, on an old, chipped wooden bench, sits a young man with a short beard, wearing a loose gray hoodie and jeans, his elbow resting on his knee, his gaze locked on the river’s waves. The wind tosses his hair as he rolls a pebble between his fingers. Impasto textures emphasize the folds and depth of his clothing—making the fabric feel tangible. In the middle ground, the river—restless and gray, laced with hints of violet and blue—done in Mixing Palette Knife, its waves breaking and glimmering under each gust of wind, every ripple like a thought. In the distance, an old railway bridge, hazy under soft Glazing layers, while birds drift above the water, adding a silence full of meaning. Everything is still—except his thoughts, which the river tries to carry away.
