When you mix a salad of different artists into the prompt, together with other styles, you get results that are a amalgam of everything, and with every iteration, it is different. DALL-E3 is particularly grotesque when compared with other models that I use on Nightcafe, for example.
Cryptid Taxidermy and Bogomil's Universe are words I use frequently. They add a additional surreal weirdness to the image.
I often write my prompts deliberately in such a way as to 'confuse' AI and induce it to halucinate. I am not interested in aiming for a precisely laid out result, but for surprises. Surrealism is a trip into the blue yonder. If I knew where it would wind up, it would bore me. That used to be the case with my analog art as well. I very rarely plotted my path, but let the spur of the moment lead me. Sometimes with my prompts for AI, I also use Dada Poetry (or some writing I compose reminiscing of Dada).
