In what manner do you feel GPT is terrible at it? I asked it to describe prompt terms for Bob Ross, based on his style. I then took those terms and formed a simple prompt - generate an image using this prompt please: "tranquil scenic landscape, wet paint style, puffy clouds, serene lake, distant mountain, trees, harmonious, earthy, natural beauty, wilderness, calm gentle realism, peaceful, pristine" It spit out these images: https://i.imgur.com/P01OAIh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/P01OAIh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/99O8S5J.jpg https://i.imgur.com/99O8S5J.jpg Took a couple of minutes. With a very small amount of effort it'll get you close to the style of Bob Ross. There are unique keywords it associates with Ross that it'll refuse to work with, apparently, "fluffy clouds" perhaps was one (it refused when I used that initially, along with "wet-on-wet paint style"). With a little adjustment you can likely fully get around that.

  Yeah it took minutes to do. If you spend even a small amount of time, 30 minutes say, it wouldn't be difficult to improve the outcome significantly. There's nothing extraordinary about the style of Bob Ross. He isn't famous for producing astounding artwork, he's famous for his speech tone (comforting), instruction (audience being able to quasi follow along at home) and that he produced peaceful natural scenes. There's nothing about his painting style that Dalle3 isn't going to be able to recreate to a high degree. How much time are you willing to invest into the prompting? If you're a big Bob Ross fan, I would think spending a small amount of time to get a highly effective prompt would be worth the ability to endlessly produce new artwork that reminds you of his style. It's very clearly feasible at this point.

I'm sorry, but I don't think that's very close to Bob's style at all. Take the clouds for instance. The closest matches are Waves of Wonder(S15E6), and Summer in the Mountain(S25E5), and that's a stretch. The vast majority of Bob's clouds don't look anything like that. They are mostly diffuse rather than the hard-edged creations DALLE3 generates. I'd challenge you to find an example among Bob's paintings with which these generations share similar characteristics https://www.twoinchbrush.com/all-paintings?page=1 https://www.twoinchbrush.com/all-paintings?page=1
