Have you tried DALL-E or Stable Diffusion yet? I bet you could generate a black and white image that met your standards for being impressive, if you spent a few minutes on it.
You can try Stable Diffusion free here: https://beta.dreamstudio.ai/
So yeah ANY style, I’m pretty sure of it.
AI really doesn't handle styles with restrictions like that well. I tried the stable diffusion website with variations on "black and white silhouette stencil image of a cat". It kept wanting to give the cat colored eyes, or it used shading, or the cat didn't have a coherent anatomy, along with the typical AI art "duds" that aren't really anything at all.
To be fair, I did get a couple of passable results when I replaced 'cat' with 'dog'. They were simple, but didn't have any obvious errors.
To be fair in the other direction, replacing 'cat' with 'abacus' gave me an (admittedly pretty) grid of numbers and some chainmail, and 'helicopter' suggested a novel design where two helicopter bodies would be stacked vertically, connected by a vertical shaft through the rotor, and which turned into a palm tree trunk above the top unit. Once you get out of the sample data, it starts to fall apart.
I feel like other people here are willing to forgive more errors than I am. They see an incoherent splotch in an image and assume more development can iron out all the problems, and I see a unavoidable artifact of the fact that these systems don't have a real understanding of what they're making.
Edit:
I gave this another shot to see if I could get a more complex stencil. This was my very first try again, so truly not cherry picked. Prompt was: “Stencil image of a tiger face. Clip art. Vector art.” This looks like an infinite stencil making machine to me
The second one is representative of the upper end of what I was getting. It's almost passable, but doesn't hold past about five seconds. The left and right half don't look like they belong to the same animal. The blank space in the middle of the face is huge and detracts from any sense of structure, and the whole mouth area is just odd.
It's seriously impressive for AI, but it's not end-of-artists type stuff. I can google "tiger black and white stencil" and get a bunch of tiger faces, and every one of them is noticeably better. People imagine there are plenty of art jobs where discrepancies like this don't matter, but there really aren't.
Again those were my first try and I know nothing about stencil beyond what 2 seconds on Google images could give me. Certainly better than I could produce if you gave me Adobe Illustrator and a weekend. And the image is mine to use as I please, unlike what I could rip off Google Images.
Also, I thought the cat was cute, but there’s really no accounting for taste. Here’s a silly and swirly cat that might be more your thing? This was a cherry picked one of 10 since you have high standards;)
I could run pretty much any of these through adobe illustrators auto trace and end up with an amazing vector image.
I could also leave it generating these for an hour and I'd have over 1000 results to choose from.
