Practical guide

How to use this generator

Draw a prompt, set a short time limit and decide whether to use reference images.

Ways to use it

  • Run a daily sketch challenge.
  • Ask a group to interpret the same prompt in different styles.

What the collection contains

The prompts span everyday objects, animals, people and imagined scenes rather than only single nouns.

Limits to keep in mind

Creative prompts are open to interpretation; originality comes from the drawing, not from the random selection.
