You can post a comment here with the names of the artists and/or the tags you want to add, and I'll add them if they're valid.

If you're using the webpage here on hugging face, then you can't updated the artists or tags data yourself. If you've downloaded all the files to use offline, then you can add artists and/or tags by editing the file, "artists_and_tags.js". The file comments describe the required syntax. After you add an artist to the file, you'll need to add the 3 images into the sub-directories within the "images" directory. Follow the same file name convention as the other images, e.g. {first}_{last}-artist.webp.

I tested "art by Steve Henderson" and "art by Fabian Perez" against both "art" and "art by" and both were pretty well known by SDXL. The results match web image searches of both artists' styles.

I can add others as I find them.

Thanks @ReggieMontoya ! I'll add those two as soon as I can. If you can suggest any tags for either of them, I'd appreciate that (e.g. mediums, styles, themes, subject matter, or artistic movements).

Excellent! Sorry I didn't get back to you before, I left the country for the holidays.

If it's cool, I will maybe add more I find in my wanderings around the SDXL-scape in the future. Great work with your site/dataset!

I have a bunch more of these coming and I just wrote up a big list before realizing that my cross checks to see if they were already on your list were misfiring. Ignore this post since I can only edit it, not delete it.

I saw your pre-edit post from email notification, and it's easy for me to cross-compare to my database.

From your list, these two are in my DB but marked as unknown by SDXL - can you confirm they are known?

Ralph Horsley
Silvestre Freddy Mamani

Yeah sorry about that. I had an incorrect array reference when it was checking if a name was already in the database, hence all the misfires.

Ralph Horsley and Silvestre Freddy Mamani both have a really distinct style when you web search for images, and SDXL base model actually does a great job capturing Ralph Horsley's modern digital art style (lots of DnD stuff) and Silvestre Freddy Mamani's results are more an interpretation of what he would do if he made traditional art (paintings). Since he does buildings, "art by Silvestre Freddy Mamani" sort of misses that. but the incredibly vibrant colors and South American style are clear as day.

I just learned ComfyUI, and have made a pipeline to generate a couple different aspect ratios from SDXL's native trained set of resolutions, then merges them and labels them. You can queue in X number of names and walk away, coming back later to a full output of images to check. I plan on running a bunch of names through to see what I get. It's too much fun to tinker!

Adam Hughes - American comic book artist, featured on covers with a pinup stlye
Adolf Schreyer - German painter of landscapes, old timey soldiers riding horses, etc
Alberto Seveso - Italian and British mixed media artist known for portraits looking like ink dripping into water. Really cool style.

I'm a big fan of Mamani's architecture. Thanks for this list!

What do you mean by merging different aspect ratios? Are you trying to discover which aspect ratio is best for recreating the artist's style?

What do you mean by merging different aspect ratios? Are you trying to discover which aspect ratio is best for recreating the artist's style?

I heard on Reddit (and decided to play it safe by checking myself) that style is sometimes aspect-ratio dependent. So I made a Comfy workflow that makes artist style cards with square and mildly rectangular ratios (and outputs labels for clarity). I am making these as part of the effort to check other artist references. There will be hundreds more coming eventually! [Note that the first one is blank to find the "base model style" for these seeds].

Prompt is just "style of XXX" and the artist name filled in for XXX

Oh good to know! I never heard that or tested it. In these few examples, the style seems consistent across the aspect ratios, except that landscape is less colorful in several of these. Most noticeably for Everson.

I wonder if the influence of aspect ratio changes depending on the prompt. For example, maybe all the Everson trainers with landscape aspect were still-life drawings and the others were portrait paintings. So if the landscape prompt is empty except for "style of Everson", then the output is a still-life drawing. But I wonder if the landscape prompt included "portrait", would it be a painting or a drawing?

Here are some artist cards I have been generating that should be (almost entirely) missing from your dataset. Testing 1:1, 2:3, 3:2, 22:9, and 9:22. Note that some artists might be in your dataset under slightly different names names/spellings. You can even see some of those duplicates in here. I am leaving them in as examples of adjacency: the output is mostly the same with variant spellings
style of ARTIST CFG7, DPM2++, Kerras, 20 base + 4 refiner steps, native SDXL resolutions only (then resized down to form an appealing grid).
Each grid takes 70 seconds to make and I am queuing up a few hundred to run over night. The list of artists to check is pretty robust!

Nice!! I'm working on adding the first list of artists you provided. Should be up in a few days. Are you using a refiner or upscale pass? Also how many steps?

Reason I ask is that these images look higher quality than I get, but I'm only doing 20 steps with just the base at 1024x1024, no refiner or upscale. I made that choice on day-1 to cut down the render speed. I may redo everything at some point. Depends how things go with SD3

Refiner - yes. 20 steps SDXL base, 5 steps refiner. These are just demos of the style to show that SDXL knows them, but the style shouldn't be too far off when they're put into your workflow.

I think it's reasonable to not go completely crazy adding stuff for now if there are time limits. Mostly these are to demo what else is in the model and to help me decide which should go into the clustering algorithm. SD Cascade is out, and SD3 is hopefully around the corner. It could be that there are no benefits to using SDXL anymore other than the LORAs and weak controlnets are already out.

If SD3 is as large a gamechanger as it's being billed as, then maybe we can collab on making a new set of artist images. If we share a Comfy workflow, we should be able to generate identical images to prove it works, then divide and conquer on the list. Two GPUs are better than one.

The good news is that all the app code, interface, and tag database works for every model. Generating images and the thumbnails isn't hard at all. The most time consuming part for me by far is writing good tags for each new artist since that requires a bit of research. I tried GTP-4, but it was wrong so often that I don't think it saved me any time.

If SD3 is good, I'll maintain a version of the app for both it and SDXL. Right now everything said about it is speculation, so we can only hope. For me, SDXL's poor controlnet support is its Achilles' heel. Ip-adapter for 1.5 is tons of fun, but the SDXL version is barely usable.

I just added 80 or so from your first list. It was a good excuse to do tag maintenance as well. The additions are all tagged with "added-2024-3". I was a day early - leap year, haha
