Pre-Raph Water Babies

So… we put a lot of work into these gorgeous creatures…

… we wanted fabulous Pre-Raphaelite dreamy romanticism, water, beautiful Victorian gowns…

… and, of course, ethereally gorgeous Pre-Raph babies…

… if you’ve followed our Mj creativity rules, you’ll know we try very hard not to use cliched prompts, because the results are always cliched imagery…

… so we spent hours approaching these sleeping beauties by stealth, creating watery worlds (we love doing water in Mj) with reeds and lilies, without mentioning ‘Pre-Raphaelite’ in our prompts…

… until the last few hours, when we put ‘ophelia’ and ‘pre-Raphaelite’ into the prompts of the almost perfect images we had created, and these are the results…

… a wonderful collection of of Victorian maidens, contentedly sleeping in lily-filled swamps. We also have, as a spin-off from this exercise, a huge amount of less conventional ‘Ophelia-like’ imagery to develop.
