Tool-Limited Prompt Generator
Creative power through constraints. Pick one brush, one pen, or one nib size and commit for the whole drawing. Limiting tools forces stronger shapes, cleaner value grouping, and bolder decisions. Start with a two-value block-in using the single tool; once the read works, allow one tiny accent (a thinner line or a small white cut) for punch.
Rotate constraints across studies: “no eraser,” “no zoom,” “five straight lines only,” or “30 strokes total.” Log what each rule improves—gesture flow, silhouette clarity, or edge discipline—and keep your best discoveries.
If you love saying more with less, translate your studies into clean statements with Minimalist Drawing Prompts. When you want to pressure-test decisiveness under time, pair constraints with Speed Sketch Drawing Prompts.
