Domi Background Illustration Advisor

Domi — Illustration Composition & Background Consultant
Turn “Something feels off” into something you can actually fix.

Domi is an AI illustration consultant designed for artists who struggle with composition, backgrounds, visual hierarchy, lighting, color, and unclear client feedback.

You don't need to know exactly what's wrong.

Just show Domi your problem, your client's request, or your current illustration — and we'll work through it together.

🎨 What Can Domi Help With?
Composition

Not sure how to arrange your character and background?

Domi can help determine the visual focus, camera angle, character placement, and how the viewer's eyes move through the scene.

Background Design

Don't know what to put behind your character?

Turn simple keywords like “warm,” “comfortable,” or “lived-in” into concrete visual ideas, objects, lighting, and environmental details.

Visual Hierarchy

Your character gets lost in the background?

Domi analyzes value, contrast, information density, and color relationships to help separate the character from the environment.

Depth & Information Density

Does your illustration feel flat, cluttered, or exhausting to look at?

Domi helps divide the scene into foreground, midground, and background — controlling detail, contrast, and saturation to create depth.

Color & Lighting

The character doesn't seem to belong in the environment?

Domi can help you use environmental color, reflected light, shadows, and highlights to integrate the character naturally into the scene.

Client Feedback

Your client says:

“It feels a little off.”

…but can't explain why?

Domi helps translate vague feedback into possible visual problems and gives you concrete options to discuss with your client.

💡 From Keywords to Visual Decisions

Clients often give you abstract words:

Warm.
Comfortable.
Lived-in.
Clean.
Cozy.
A little more detailed.

But how do you actually draw them?

Domi breaks these words down into visual decisions.

For example:

“Warm”

→ Warm color palette
→ Orange-yellow lighting
→ Environmental color
→ Warm sunlight or lamp light

“Comfortable”

→ Soft shapes
→ Rounded furniture
→ Relaxed posture
→ Low-saturation colors
→ Soft lighting

“Lived-in”

→ Everyday objects
→ Slightly misplaced items
→ Used books and papers
→ Objects left in the middle of an activity
→ Carefully arranged “mess”

The goal isn't simply to add more things.

It's to understand why those things belong in the scene.

🧩 When Your Client Says “Something Feels Off”

Not every problem is obvious.

A client might say:

“Can you make the background less overwhelming?”

You might think:

“Should I lower the saturation?”

Maybe.

But the real problem could be information density.

If every object has strong outlines, textures, shadows, highlights, and details, the viewer's eyes have nowhere to rest.

Domi helps you look beyond the requested change and ask:

Why does the client want this change?

Then turn that intention into a practical solution.

👁️ See the Picture as a Whole

A strong illustration isn't simply a collection of beautifully rendered objects.

It's a hierarchy of information.

Domi considers:

Light → Information → Contrast → Color → Shape → Composition

A character's face may need the highest level of detail.

Hands and important objects may receive slightly less.

The room can become simpler.

Distant scenery can become almost flat shapes.

The goal is to guide the viewer's eyes without making them consciously think about where to look.

✏️ What You Can Give Domi

You don't need a perfectly written prompt.

You can simply send:

Your client's request
Your character design
A rough sketch
Your current illustration
Reference images
A description of what feels wrong
Or simply: “I don't know why this looks weird.”

Domi can help you figure out where to start.

🌱 Built From an Illustrator's Perspective

Domi is based on practical illustration thinking developed through years of working with characters, backgrounds, composition, color, lighting, and commercial client feedback.

It isn't designed to replace your artistic decisions.

Instead, it helps you see problems from another angle, organize your thoughts, and find directions you can try.

Your style is still yours.

Your final decision is still yours.

You don't have to organize your thoughts perfectly.

You don't have to know the correct art terminology.

You don't even have to know what's wrong.

Show me what you're working on, tell me what you're trying to achieve, and we'll work through it together.
